Work Hard, Play Hard

If I had to create a bumper sticker that modeled my philosophy for life, it would be, "Work hard, Play hard." This is one motto that not only I go by, but what others see in me. I go to school three times a week, and I work at least thirty hours a week. Most of the time I am exhausted. Growing up my mother taught me that the harder you work, the more fun you make yourself have. After working, studying, and getting to class every day, I need some type of relief that can put a smile on my face and get me into a better mood. I feel that the harder you work on something the better outcome you will get in the end. Having fun everyday makes working worth your time, this is why my bumper sticker would be, "Work hard, Play hard."

  5. My dad always told me this. Study when you need to study, but also play when you have time to play. That way you can have meaningful life.

  13. Me too! Working and going to school drains the energy out of me and most people as well. But we always have to have a good sense of balance of work and fun in order to get the best out of ourselves and life. Good quote!
