I'm an online editor and I work for a website geared toward technology professionals. I do my writing and editing from home. It's a demanding job, and I find more and more that I have to work longer hours to keep up with the work. 9-10 hour days are not uncommon. For work, I recently had the opportunity to speak with a leadership consultant and psychologist, Dr. Henry Cloud, whose book on work life balance has just come out. I spoke with Dr. Cloud about the <a href="http://www.cio.com/article/443772/" rel="nofollow">importance of establishing personal boundaries</a> so that work doesn't take over our lives. I found his words to be a clarion call about the importance of having balance. I hope you will, too. Work-life balance and working at home are topics near and dear to my heart.
