I work till 5pm. Have done for about 2 years now. Whats happened?

1) I haven't burned out 2) I have retained good relationships with my family and friends 3) I enjoy evenings out

Previously I worked all hours. If my partner had let me I would have brought the computer to bed and typed into the night. I burned out and jeopardised my relationship.

I get that there are times when you need to work longer. When you have a deadline or something really needs to be done. However.. if this is every day for a long period of time then you are probably doing something wrong.
