I'd be more than willing to work 60-hour workweeks under the following conditions:

1. I'm good at what I do;
2. I love what I do;
3. I take pride in my results;
4. I have autonomy;
5. I'm appreciated ;
6. I have a measurable impact on my company, clients, and/or industry;
7. I'm compensated fairly; and
8. I have between 3 and 4 weeks' vacation per year.

I see the value of enjoying life while you're young; but at the same time, I don't want to be living off of cat food on crackers when I'm in my eighties.

I see satisfaction in a life of productivity. It's all about finding something you enjoy and value.

Now if only I'd do what I say instead of what I do.
