Work/Life Issues

Maslow's hierarchy of needs places "self-actualization" at the final stage of personal development and "basics" like food or shelter as the primary. And yet society has a confusing demand that men seek both these things from the same place - work. 

The mission to seek survival and fulfillment simultaneously is a brutal and contradictory one. You bleed yourself to obtain businesses, degrees and promotions, meeting all the expectations expected of men, fathers, providers...drinking from both ends of the hose until one day - you find that you're downing. Isolated, overwhelmed, even abandoned. Unsure of what it all means, or how to find your way out.
