It's incredibly depressing that "finding time to invest in yourself" is about furthering your career. Sure that's part of it, but it's just one piece.
I'm so lucky that I've almost forgotten how lucky I am to have an employer who lets me work on myself in job related aspects at work. They give me time to get better at my job at treat me well enough for me to stay. It sure as hell pays dividends to them as I get better at making stuff for them.
Meanwhile, that means that outside of work, finding time to invest in myself doesn't have anything to do with career. I've got that covered at work. Now it's about finding time to make myself feel fulfilled. This is what I'm happiest to be able to invest time into, and it's not even mentioned in a post about finding time to invest in yourself? It feels like another symptom of the broken work-life balance culture I see in the early stage startup community. More like work=life balance.
