Rereading my message, I wasn't clear at all :) What I meant is that if you love your work, your stress levels do not rise and if it's enjoyable enough as a hobby, you can spend a lot of hours working but still be happy because you're doing something you like (and I'm lucky enough that I have to deal with very little bullshit that detracts from my enjoyment of work). My work/life balance is essentially balancing things between my hobbies and my family. So, it's a much nicer situation than if I was working on something I didn't love and I had to balance that with hobbies and family life.
