Even if the "spaces around that" much significantly larger time than the family time is, it's a matter of priorities: when both your partner and your collaborator come to you at the same time saying they have an emergency that needs 6 hours of attention in the next 24, which one are you going to turn down? For example: your partner has the flu and wants you to take care of the baby, and at the same time the journal denied the request for extra time on the paper revision. Which way do you go? | |

An idea I have had after reading it is to perhaps plan my life around what I do with my family, and then fit work into the spaces around that. Perhaps I am thinking of things backwards at the moment... | |
