Some of us work extremely hard and never have time for our personal lives, and particularly, our own families. Perhaps, however, it's time to change that. Consider this: it's pretty difficult to be productive for over 80 hours a week. Instead, take a break during the evening and focus on family time (especially during dinner). At the end of the day, you're making that money so that you can attend to your family—but your family should not be put on hold while you're hard at work. What changes have you made to emphasize family over your career? Let's hear your best moves in the comments.Balancing Work & Family [FreelanceSwitch]

Do you head off to the office in the morning full of anticipation or dread? The Dumb Little Man weblog tackles the sticky matter of how to do what you love at work. If your overall feeling at the office is icky instead of happy, it may be time to examine your career choices. Take time to reflect on your wants, your desires, your talents, and your unique abilities. Think about the types of jobs that would make you feel fulfilled and satisfied. Once you have determined what you would like to be doing, visualize it. Become whatever it is you wish to be. For example, you may be an office administrator, but long to become an interior designer. Do not say to yourself, "I want to be." Rather, tell yourself, "I am." Have you ever gotten yourself out of a crappy job and into one you love? How did you do it?

Career advisor Penelope Trunk offers a five-question quiz that calculates whether you're likely to get that job promotion. Like most of Trunk's delightfully unconventional tips, this promotion-o-meter's based not on whether or not you're the best candidate, but on the realities of office politics. Questions range from whether the boss likes you, if you're working on a high profile project, if you work a lot of hours (or at least create the impression that you do), and if you're at the top of the pay scale and experience for your current position. What's your score on the test? Let us know in the comments.Will you get promoted? Take the test [Brazen Careerist]

Career columnist Marci Alboher offers up advice on how to perform a controlled slide out of a layoff situation and into your next job ASAP, using nothing more complicated than email (or a pen and paper, if you're all about sincerity). While most workers start cutting their ties to the shop that did them wrong, Alboher says focusing on the positives of your employment, while also working your farthest-out contacts, can net results:While it may feel like an odd time for gratitude, you may make some good impressions by composing a few handwritten thank-you notes to those who have helped you in your career. Similarly, if you can craft a graceful departure email thanking colleagues for their support, providing your personal contact information and saying you are open to any leads or introductions, again you may be pleased with the results.
