This post from The Juggle (about a Wall Street Journal story on doctors rebelling against the notion that they should be available to their patients 24/7) makes me wonder: Has there really been a shift toward work-life balance? The story says there is a trend among young doctors who want to put their families first. But will these doctors be considered successful? Will their practices thrive? As far as I can tell, most people — in any field — who fail to put work above all else usually end up stuck near the bottom of their career ladder, or at least at a plateau.
