A workaholic, colloquially, is a person who is addicted to work. This phrase does not always imply that the person actually enjoys their work, but rather simply feels compelled to do it. There is no generally accepted medical definition of such a condition, although some forms of stress, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder can be work-related. Although the term "workaholic" usually has a negative connotation, it is sometimes used by people wishing to express their devotion to one's career in positive terms. The "work" in question is usually associated with a paying job, but it may also refer to independent pursuits such as sports, music and art. A "workaholic" in the negative sense is popularly characterized by a neglect of family and other social relations.
Workaholism in Japan is considered a serious social problem leading to early death, often on the job, a phenomenon dubbed karōshi.

Workaholism - When It Is Time to Go Home

Posted On Sunday, January 11, 2009 at на 8:22 PM by admin  

work is the primary method of making a living. At work, your culture, your lifestyle, it is time to re-evaluate that the standard of living. Here are some signs that it is time for a workaholic to go home, and the connection with life.

fatigue

nothing you read and write makes sense. Your eyes should be, and the room is a little twist. They are tired. Nothing of any good will from what you are doing. Go home.

If you wake up at 11:00 clock and are still on your desk, not as a power nap. It is time to go home.

Lately, your health is not what it once was. You catch colds more often, your weight has changed significantly, your joints and muscles ache all the time, you have headaches, if it was never a problem. Guess what? You work your body too much, not him a chance to recover. Decrease your working!

fear

If you work with your schedule if you fear that degrades or at an undesirable position, you have to go home and find out how your work situation. Need help? If you are not enough to delegate tasks to your team?

If you believe you are working as hard as possible, but do not believe that you are making progress, maybe you need to learn how to work smarter rather than harder.

If you are working, beyond all others, because your boss is a bear, it's time to go home and to your application. It does not matter if you are well paid. For some bosses, it is combat pay. No job is worth putting up with a critical, negative, non-is-satisfied verbally abusive boss.

Obsession

If you work where you go, even on the beach, it is time to pull back on your working hours. Their ability to rationally and reasonably is in danger.

If your friends do not bother to call you more, or inform you about events in the city, it's time to go home, you can use some of these calls.

If your family is no longer in their work, unless you take the time out to participate, you are in a "critical mass" of separation. It is time to save your marriage, relationship with your children, your friends, and others that were previously part of the inner circle.

best reason to go home

The most critical time to go home, if you decide there is no reason to go home. They live alone, you have a spouse you are not to see your children and adolescents seem to have their own life story. You do not think it matters whether you go home or not. They are the most satisfied when you are at work.

If you work for a house that no meaning for you, you live in denial. Work replaces what used to be a balance and life. It is now your crutch, your safety net. You must realize that you're not just a workaholic, you are in desperate need of perspective.

As an annual assessment of employees, you have to do a personal evaluation. Get the most out of your personal life, and if not, why? What can or should we change? If you died tomorrow, your boss will go to your funeral, and then you can hire a replacement. Think about it, then one of the agenda for your life back into balance.
