- Former President Barack Obama admits that if you want to find career success, you shouldn’t expect to always have work–life balance; it’s okay to “throw yourself into work,” as long as you make up for it later, he says. After a hard-core campaign season, he set a strict rule as president to have dinner every night with Michelle and his two daughters, Sasha and Malia.
If finding success in your career is on your bucket list, you might need to get used to working lunches and staying past 5 p.m. That’s, at least, according to former President Barack Obama, who recently revealed that achieving proper work–life balance will not always be possible.
