It’s an unfortunate byproduct of capitalism. A high percentage of Americans suffer because of it. Quality family time, relaxation, and shared community have gone by the wayside for much of the American population because we are taught to chase money at all costs. I think guaranteed universal Healthcare would go a long way toward countering the workaholic mindset. Every American has it in the back of their heads that a medical emergency could wipe out their savings.
I constantly took jobs (in advertising) that I thought would bring prestige and attention to my career, but it mostly just brought an insane amount of stress, less time at home with my family, and insecurities. I finally moved on from what I thought was ‘cool’ or ‘popular’ and found a job with nice people that understand work/life balance. It’s helped a lot. I’m not winning any awards but who really cares? My husband likes me a lot more and I get to have hobbies. That feels like success to me!
I’m on the production vendor side.
This! I worked at two renowned sweat shops and I looked around at leadership. People without families or close friends. People with families missing the important stuff. People cheating on their significant others. People desperately trying to look cool and young when they were neither. I hope somewhere this is not the case but it scared me enough to change my thinking.
The pursuit of money is empty. The pursuit of stability is survival. The pursuit of purpose is sanity. The pursuit of love is universal.

I don’t think successful people are any more miserable than unsuccessful people; I think many of us expect them to be less miserable, rather than expressing and dealing with misery in different (and usually more expensive) ways.
(Also there’s decades of research that suggests having good relationships is the biggest contributor to happiness)
I focused on happiness and inner peace wasn’t promoted this round 🥲 lol
