One thing I have collected from these tweets is that you should never put your mental and physical health before the job, these factors should always be superior. Your priority should never be to make a million dollars at the expense of your health. It cannot be damaged. Your family and friends are who will best poise your life. What is the point of those million dollars if you aren’t in the right capacity to spend them in order to make your life better?
This is the greatest lesson I have learned so far in my work experience.
13. It shall always come first.

21. This is so true. Our society works in a really weird way.
22. Treat your job as another responsibility in a major set of responsibilities. Don’t prioritize it over other key responsibilities.
Via Jesuonyem
23. Creating a work-life balance is extremely important.
Via YolStewart
24. It is so important to keep your personal life away from your corporate life. The day you blend them together is the day you will start regretting being part of both worlds.
