EP 234 (171/365) Work-Life Balance Part-1
One of the most commonly used phrases. I heard it first a few years into starting to work and I laughed at it because for me there was no much difference between the two. Work and Life were more or less the same. My friends were those with whom I worked and we worked on weekends…

EP 228 (165/365) Contribute More than you Work
