Fulfilling one’s potential

2. Supporting family members

Nowadays, we often hear that it is important to have shorter working hours. It is important to ask
why this is happening. Is it because we essentially need more freedom to unleash our full potential?
Or maybe it is crucial for people to have some time to support their family members in times of need.

One convincing argument for shorter working hours could be that it would help people pursue their
passions outside work. Those who work few hours has more time and energy to focus on their
personal development, with more time and energy, they can find out new hobbies or travel across the
world. We could say that reducing working hours increases employee’s happiness, which help
organizations or companies in implementing a positive environment and sustainability. As a result,
they will have much more effective and motivated staff, who will not require training costs.

Another reason why we should give work a lower priority is due to a lack of free time that prevents
us from being present in our family members’ lives.

Many families face issues that require assistance. For instance, elderly members need help in certain
times, mostly in tough situations, while kids need attention and care. Additionally, there are
household duties and we need time to manage it. When people can take family responsibilities, it
aims for perfect relationships and creates a supporting atmosphere.

From my point of view, fulfilling one’s potential helps improve people’s lives. Research shows that
every individual needs to establish their personal routine to achieve their goals. While I am having
positive opinion about family supporting idea, I strongly agree that everyone deserves to experience
solitude to disconnect from everyone and discover their passions, which helps us to discover more
potential in ourselves and has a positive influence on our ability to self-reflect.

To sum up, even though the idea of supporting our families is an important aspect to consider, I
believe that when it comes to having more freedom at work, we should prioritize accomplishing our
personal goals.
