week 9, post 3


The concept I found most interesting from this week’s reading was work versus play. I think it is important to have a balance between work and play and I believe that is where most people struggle. I make sure that I have a good balance of work and play. When I was a freshman at SJSU I took a “leisure” class. The course was called “Creating A Meaningful Life.” The class taught me how to make sure I am having “leisure time” or “me time” along with working hard. I thought this class taught me a lot because some people get so wrapped up in their work or their jobs they do not know how to have some fun and forget about their obligations. It is a good thing to forget about for responsibilities for a little but and allow yourself to enjoy your life and not always be in work mode. Overall, this class taught me to have a bit more fun and not just focus on work or school and to have some fun.

  1. I found your post really interesting because I honestly had no idea they even had a class like that! It's definitely important to make time for work and play otherwise we get burnt out. Too much work means a lot of stress and too much play means little productivity and an unfulfilled life. Play always sounds more fun than work but having a balance of both makes for a fulfilling lifestyle. Especially because after you complete all your work, the play is much more enjoyable because you essentially worked for it. Nice post!
