Thank you for this great article! I’ve been just hired for a new position in a big company as a Software Engineer Intern. Although I’m sure in the next few months I’ll fully commit myself to work as well as I possibly can I extremely value myself as a person thinking that my well being is automatically applied to other’s needs. This way I couldn’t agree with you more. Think about the time you spend in your life with people you love. Why did you choose to commit yourself to do hard work all day long? I want to be a great person, father, spouse. Whatever goal you have it’s always connected to other people in your life. Take your time to stop and appreciate every second you can spend with the one’s you love.
