A piece of advice for all the young girls!
We are living in a time where women are prioritizing their career and that’s commendable. It’s okay to set your career, pay your bills and be independent. Apart from all this, it is also important to strike a balance. In the end, you should not be regretting that all you did in your life was – ‘Work’. Take out time for yourself, your family and close friends. Steal moments because life is all about living in the present.
Talking about the statistics, India ranks really low in terms of work life balance. Metro cities like Bengaluru, Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai and New Delhi were ranked extremely low, with Mumbai coming in at 86 and New Delhi scoring 87 out of 100 cities.
Remember – You have only one life and you should make most of it! Work is a part of life but not your life. Do not forget to make memories and do things that make you happy!
