Workaholism : Is It Useful ? My Opinion Essay. All of us want to become successful. Some people say that workaholism helps to obtain quick promotions. I do not think so. I am sure workaholism is not a good quality for workers. Firstly, it may lead to stress. People know that sooner or later an overtasked brain will need to have a rest. Otherwise, it will cause some mental health troubles. Secondly, workaholism can be addictive. Usually, workaholics cannot imagine their lives without work and, consequently, lose the interest to all other joys of life. Thirdly, overworking people do not have enough time to spend with the people them they love. As a result, they become lonely and unhappy. On the other hand, some people claim, that workaholism is a key to successful career. They say, people, that work more than others, can make a fortune much faster. I cannot agree with it. Due to chronic fatigue workaholics cannot be as good at work as other people can. Usually, tiredness and irritability worsen worker’s concentration of attention and capacity for work. Despite other people’s opinion, I am still convinced that workaholism cannot make people successful. They cannot stay concentrated, mentally strong and satisfied with their lives.
