What is one thing you could start doing today to improve the quality of your life?

One thing I would start is adequate work-life balance. I feel that I should on the computer a lot due to schoolwork, volunteer and work. However, I need to give myself permission to have fun sometimes (like watching movies or going out to festivals or something), because otherwise life will be dull.

@sparklesinthewater

Sorry to hear that too much work had such a negative impact on you. Finding the balance can be challenging particularly if work became our only focus. How are you coping now?

@bogartfan

bogart, hope everything went well. Sorry to hear about your worries of cancer. I believe some worry is normal with all tests and examination, I was worried too l but I found out for myself the more I read about what could happen the more concerned I become. So today I still get worried a little but wait until results come before I start checking about consequences.
