Are you always involved with work? Does work occupy most of your time? Do you keep thinking of work even while relaxing? Is work the beginning and end of your day? Then you are a workaholic. Let us see if being a workaholic good or bad for mental health?

All of us must sometimes question the why about our life? Why are we born? What is the objective of our life? What are we meant to do? Some answers come to our mind- to work, to make others happy, to contribute something useful to the society, to enjoy life and what nature has given to us and so on. Many of us pursue a single-minded goal and spend whole life in pursuing that. Think of some explorers. They spent their life in exploring the unknown. This became a mission of their life. Similarly some missionaries, musicians, painters and other such people who have made one object as the mission of life. If you ask one such person about this/her mission statement, it will be a curt answer. What is your mission statement? Workaholics have the mission statement as- keep working. But why and for what- what is the objective? Those who work building new marvels- are they not supposed to have hobbies? Are they not supposed to admire what nature has gifted, or admire music, paintings etc. Workaholics do not pay attention to anything else other than work. Is that a happy life? Think about this and find the answer.

What if you are working for a large corporation and are a workaholic. What if after devoting a large part of life working, you are removed? Imagine the trauma! The shock will shake the foundations of your very life. Being devoted to work is good. Being efficient is good. But being obsessive about work may not be good. You lose so many other things in life- love, relationships, family bonding, nature, and other many such things that you can enjoy. We are given one life and should devote to make the best of it.
