First of all, you're talking about "workaholism." I'm not. I'm saying that there's nothing wrong with working extremely hard and that it doesn't imply inefficiency of less 'smart' work. Realize that there are things that are actually inherently hard and that you might, just maybe, need to work more than 35 hours a week to get them finished!
Also, the Steve Jobs quote is cute, but doesn't really address what I'm saying. Steve Jobs is purely saying that Bill Gates should have probably enjoyed his life more, but that doesn't mean he couldn't also work hard. There are actually 168 hours in a week. You can work for 60 hours and still drop acid, it turns out. You don't have to call it quits at 35 hours because you're supposedly working 'smarter' and Steve Jobs definitely didn't.
