(2025·广东省珠海市金砖四校期中联考)Many people confuse hard - working people with workaholics(工作狂). How could a person tell that he or she is a workaholic? A workaholic works long hours, at the expense of personal relationships and health. When not working, they're thinking about work. Work influences their mood: When work is going well, they're up; when work is going less well, they're down.
Working, or simply being busy, can be a hard habit to break. When workaholics aren't busy working— or doing something to promote their work— they feel anxious and guilty. They hang onto jobs for dear life and do everything they can to make sure they're essential.
There is a link between health problems and workaholism. Just because work itself is a respectable pursuit doesn't mean that an addiction to it is any less damaging than other sorts of addictions. A number of studies show that workaholism has been associated with a wide range of health problems, such as anxiety and heart disease.
Besides health problems, being a workaholic brings other negative effects as well. A study published in the American Journal of Family Therapy found that working too much negatively influenced an employee's marriage. This isn't surprising, since if you're married to your work, it can be difficult to be married to anything, or anyone else. There have also been studies looking at the influence of workaholic parents on their children and the news isn't good. Adult children of workaholic fathers experienced more depression and anxiety and a weaker sense of self.
However, there are also many positive aspects to working hard and to the increasing devotion to one's career. Hard work can bring great rewards. For many, it's how they develop feelings of self - worth, confidence and purpose. If you have a workaholic in your life, you might point out the things he or she is missing out on while at work, whether it's a child's soccer game, a good book, or a yoga class. Seek to understand why the person feels the need to work so much and support him or her in finding a solution.
