When you are career oriented, it can be difficult to maintain work-life balance. If you are having difficulty, you can start by setting boundaries around work hours and commitments, and prioritizing time for personal interests, relationships, and self-care activities. You can also delegate tasks when possible and learn to say no to additional responsibilities that may interfere with work-life balance. Practice mindfulness and stress management techniques to stay present and focused on both professional and personal priorities.
 
It is worth understanding that if you are in a relationship, work should never be the main thing, so you need to be smart about what you have to choose. In my opinion, you should always choose a relationship if such situations occur and even the most important project cannot be the main one
 
I also have issues in this aspect. Majority of my time is usually used for work, though I do create time to have a little discussion with others but I do not have enough time for my personal rest.

Work is important, but so is personal life. I try my best to strike a balance between my work and my personal life. I don't let work interfere with what I do to make myself happy during free times. I also make sure that I build my social life by having friends and hanging out with them.
 
Striking a work-life balance requires being intentional about priorities. Set firm boundaries by scheduling downtime and fully disconnecting from work. Develop efficiency strategies to maximize productivity during working hours. Build a supportive network who can share responsibilities. Most importantly, nurture non-work passions and relationships that rejuvenate your mind and spirit.
