3 work styles—and how to pick one that works for you

As a digital nomad, embracing chaos and structure is crucial due to constant changes in logistics and living with chronic illnesses, which has led to understanding one's own work style. A work style refers to the way an individual approaches work, encompassing habits, behaviors, personality traits, skills, and preferences that shape their work life. Understanding this can greatly impact productivity and well-being. Three primary work styles are: work-life balance, where work and personal tasks are compartmentalized; work-life integration, which combines work and personal activities; and life-work balance, a newer concept that considers daily activities as both "need-to-do" and "want-to-do". Each style has its pros and cons, and individuals may need to adjust their approach based on their unique needs and circumstances. Ultimately, finding the right work style is crucial for success and well-being.
