Why workaholism maybe bad for you
- Q: Do workaholics accomplish more than people who work fewer hours?
- A: Often, they don't. That is because, as perfectionists, they may become so fixated on inconsequential details that they find it hard to move on to the next task, Robinson said.
- As Porter put it: "They're not looking for ways to be more efficient; they're just looking for ways to always have more work to do."
