Extreme Workaholics: deriving meaning and satisfaction purely from their career

Workaholics are individuals who derive their meaning and purpose primarily from their career. Their satisfaction and value in life are defined by their work. While having a strong work ethic and being able to handle stress are admirable qualities, workaholics may neglect other aspects of their life, leading to an imbalance. It is crucial for individuals to find fulfillment and satisfaction outside of work, to be able to enjoy other things in life, and to have a more balanced approach.
