A lot of media attention has focused on the harmful effects of working long hours.
Logging excessive hours at work is rooted in the work culture of the West.From Bay Area
startups to various multinationals,their idea is centered around how many hours you can clock
at work.It is assumed that the more hours you put into your job,the more career prospects
you'll get out of it.
A new study in Europe challenged this assumption,however.From their analysis of
nearly 52,000 people from 36 European countries,they concluded that it's not the number of
hours you clock at the office,but how intensely you work during those hours,that affects
career-related outcomes.Researchers found people,with similar jobs and education levels,
were more likely to suffer poorer well-being and inferior career prospects,including
satisfaction,security and promotion,when they worked at an intense level for long periods.

never materialize.
Employers should reduce work intensity rather than try to control excessive hours,the
authors concluded."Compared with overtime,work intensity predicts much greater reductions
in well-being and career benefits,Hans Frankort said.
There is also a range of things for employees to do to ensure they're working smarter,and
not just harder.Beth Belle Cooper,a former content creator at Buffer,the social media
scheduling app,suggests taking more breaks to refresh your mind and reset your attention
span.She also recommends taking naps to consolidate new information in the brain and help
you avoid burnout.You might also consider completely unplugging from work more
consistently,and for longer periods of time.This is what Sean McCabe and his small team
does when they take a week-long vacation every seventh week.

ChatGPT is a new Al system that sounds so human in conversations that it could host its
own radio programs.Reading between its instantly generated,perfectly grammatical lines,
people see different visions of the future.Without doubt,ChatGPT is impressive.
Some compare the emergence of ChatGPT to the impact of the iPhone,but that doesn't
do it justice.ChatGPT,as well as the generative AI that will follow and outsmart it,is more
