We are looking at the wrong balance

We always keep talking about the work life balance and how we have to maintain a certain work-life balance for the sanity of self and the overall workplace. There is no such thing as work life balance. It is actually a myth based on how the work environments are evolving/transforming. Either we have life or we have work. The only closest way to achieve this balance is to integrate work into your life. But the important thing is we are looking at the wrong balance. 

The real balance we all need to look into is the skills-ambition balance. If there is a work environment where the ambition far outweighs the skill-set then that needs to be checked. It is also a dangerous environment to be in, especially when there are no ethics in play. Work environments where skill-sets match ambition, that’s the kind of environments we want to be in. This balance definitely helps with maintaining the overall sanity of the environment. If we all watch our skills and our ambition and keep it balanced, that will definitely contribute to the overall well-being
