6000 AA Speakers and AA big book audio that are Thoughtfully Categorized. Speaker Tapes are Broken Down by Step, Speaker, and Topic!
This site includes tapes of Joe & Charlie talking about the 12 steps for AA. So helpful for anyone in recovery. The entire site was built as a labour of love/recovery. Amazing. Would love to hear tapes for WA.

PDF | Although workaholism has been hypothesized to have an effect on interpersonal relationships, few studies have obtained data from other individuals in a focal person's network. The present exploratory study examined level of agreement in both workaholism components proposed by...
This study examines the relationship of three workaholism components (work involvement, feeling driven to work, work enjoyment) proposed by Spence and Robbins (1992) and a variety of work and...

What if you didn’t give 110%?
👉 “I long ago decided to invest in extreme moderation. I do everything with the deliberate intent of finding a balance between two extremes — doing nothing and doing too much. I want to do a reasonable job at the different parts of my life and a stellar job at the balance between all of them. So many of us say we want balance, but we aren’t extreme enough in our devotion to this ideal. We lean too heavily or for too long on one dimension or another.”
👉 “Different phases of life will have very different goals and balances. In my thirties, I spent more time parenting than exercising. In my late fifties, that needs to change. But I don’t need to become a triathlete. Instead, I do some yoga every week and walk the dog daily. I eat well but don’t fuss. I work hard but not overtime. I try to love consciously, every day. To give back and to spend some time helping others. Could I do more? Yes, undoubtedly and in every area.”
👉 “There are tens of millions of people who do better at each of these things than I do. But I don’t have to compare myself with them, because I’m in a different competition. And in that arena, I’m one of the best I know. I am an absolute master at moderation. I don’t (usually) brag about it; that’s not part of the moderate’s mindset (and I am Canadian, after all). But I have spent a lifetime honing my daily practice, worshipping at the altar of “good enough.” Today, I am neither superrich nor superfit nor supersuccessful. But I have just enough of each to qualify in my own personal marathon, the race for a balanced life. In the end, maybe this only really matters to me and my dog, who does get a lot of good walks out of it. To me, that’s enough.”
In this article, the concept of excessive work as a potential addiction is examined along with the problem of defining what lies at the core of being addicted to work. Using criteria adapted from other behavioural addictions, it is argued that excessive work can in some circumstances viewed as a genuine addiction that shares many similarities to other more traditional addictions.

Okay! This is where I’m keeping articles, links to articles, snippets of stories, whatever - anything that’s going to fill the well and feed the beast that is my evolving thinking on workaholism, what it is, what it isn’t, what it means for me and what it means for the future of work.
