Successful career and happy private life are incompatible
An opinion that successful career and happy personal life are incompatible is a common one.

An opinion that successful career and happy personal life are incompatible is a common one.
Many people meet successful but lonely business ladies and, opposite, housewives stuck in family cares. Psychologists came to the conclusion that either of variants is bad.
Those who think that only women face the choice between family and career are also mistaken. Majority of men work hard and could not even remember when they were on date or rest with family last time.
Only person, who manages to combine work and personal life reasonably, finds time for hobby, is really successful. If one of these components is lost, human life can not be considered a full one. It should be admitted that unwise distribution of time harms women more because they are in charge of housekeeping. Traditionally hobbies are considered a male prerogative - hunting, fishing and football are the most popular.
So happiness is based on 3 components. What will happen if a person concentrates only on one of them - job, for example? The answer is evident. If a person devoted to the job loses it for some reason then he faces with global catastrophe. The same situation can be referred to a woman, who devotes life to beloved husband, in case the latter decides to change his love preferences.
