But, when do you “draw the line?” Some things should never be sacrificed for a job.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”4. Your Personal Goals

They provide the money we need to survive as well as for a bit of comfort. But, your job should never outweigh other ambitions you have in your life.

Compromising principles can be subtle or glaring.  Misrepresentation and manipulation can be easy while climbing the corporate ladder. But, in the end, who will you see when you look in the mirror? What kind of ethics do you value? It’s never too late to change.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=”custom” el_width=”70″ accent_color=”#962468″ css=”.vc_custom_1468283466004{padding-top: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”2.

It would be interesting to see if those figures have increased in the years since. Studies show that adult children of workaholics suffered from anxiety, depression and marriage difficulties.
