How to make work-life balance work

True balance comes from designing life on one's own terms, not from corporate perks or government policies. Many people work long hours at jobs they dislike, missing out on the small moments that actually make life meaningful. A single afternoon spent with a child can become the most treasured memory, showing that radical change is not required. Shifting focus to intentional choices and redefining success can transform both individual lives and society.
