Work-life Balance<br />
How to achieve the elusive concept<br />
Work-life balance: the dream of most but the realization of a select and lucky few.<br />
So many factors go into the formula of work-life balance, or imbalance as it may be,<br />
including workload, commute, your boss, work pace and countless other factors.<br />
Where you live may even play a role in achieving this seemingly utopian concept.<br />
A new survey by New York-based company Kisi ranked cities in America, and<br />
across the globe, based on a number of factors. Arrival time, hours worked, vacation<br />
time, healthcare and city livability were considered and averaged, creating a formula<br />
that determined the best cities where one can achieve work-life balance.<br />
San Diego, Portland, San Francisco, Minneapolis and New York City represented<br />
the top five U.S. cities to work, according to Kisi. Metro Phoenix checked in<br />
at No. 20. Even the U.S. top five paled in comparison to global metropolises such as<br />
Helsinki, Munich, Oslo, Hamburg and Stockholm.<br />
Regardless of where you live, there are things every person can do to help get<br />
closer to their goal of having a work-life balance.<br />
