Work-Life Balance should be Life-Work Balance - what do you reckon?
We hear so much these days about the work-life balance, but isn't that bit of jargon putting up a barrier right from the start?

Walt Disney kind of summed this up when he said: "We don't make movies to make money. We make money to make movies."

I hear a lot of talk about life/work balance and I think most of it is nonsense. The word balance for me implies equal. I prefer the word harmony, therefore life/work harmony.
