Sometimes, you just stay a little out of whack

Some jobs require that you lean on the work side of life a little more than the personal during certain times of year. If this is the case for you, make sure that you don't go overboard. Retailers love to suck you dry during the Christmas season, but don't sign up for every extra shift! It's tempting, but your home life will suffer.

Some people are in the wrong job, and doing the work, because they want the attributes of the job. A doctor might be a surgeon for the prestige, but have no interest in people. Some are 'stuck' in a job they don't like because they cant get anything better suited to them. This may be due to a lack of the specific skills needed, a lack of initiative, or no job hunting skill. Others may work at the wrong job because of pressure to stay in 'the family business', or because they think a certain career is expected of them for what ever reason. Many people start a work history with the first job they can get and just stay in that industry forever.
