Then the issue is with your definition of successful. If you only main for professional success, indeed, working more hours will put you at advantage.
But having been with already some people on their last days of life, I don't remember any of them regretting of not having spend more time working, but always of having had more time with family and friends.
- dpark 10y agoClearly the definition here is success at work. Working long hours is unlikely to improve anyone's home situation unless they're impoverished and earning hourly wages or have a home environment so horrible that being at work is preferable.
- st3v3r 10y agoYou said "most successful people". That doesn't clearly mean at work.
- dpark 10y agoThe entire comment thread is about success at work. Aetherson used the word "work" 3 times and was clearly discussing the impact of working long hours on success in the workplace. Willfully ignoring context to try to make your point isn't clever.
