The Challenges and Benefits of
Balancing Work and Study
Working and Studying Simultaneously
The Challenges of Balancing Work and Study
More and more people are choosing to alternate their studies with a job.
This may be done to pay for their studies or to continue learning and evolve
in their job. However, doing both can be very difficult due to the high levels
of stress involved.
The restrictions imposed due to the coronavirus pandemic have not
necessarily harmed the organization of those who work and study. In fact,
for some, studying and working remotely has been more bearable than
doing so in person. This is because traveling to a physical workplace can add
exhaustion, loss of time, uncertainty, and concerns about contagion, as one
often encounters people on public transport who do not follow basic
preventive measures.
Students who perform both activities may feel more pronounced pressure
and stress. Therefore, any support and empathy from work colleagues,
classmates, friends, or family can be of great help.
The Benefits of Combining Work and Study
Working and studying at the same time is a complicated task, but it can also
be a valuable experience that shapes the individual. On the one hand, the
individual gains experience in the working world, while on the other, they
acquire knowledge.
Although the task of balancing work and study is difficult and complicated,
the benefits that the experience will bring in the future can be numerous.
