Donald Super's Theory of Life-Span and Life-Space offers perspective on how we develop passions and careers in the context of the many roles that we play throughout life. As you think about roles you play in your life, the reasons that bring you to the discipline of psychology, and the career goals that are important to you, please reflect and answer the following questions.

1) Do you believe that it is a challenge to achieve work and life balance? Can the roles conflict? What do you think might be good strategies for achieving this balance? Explain your answer.

2) What might lead to professional "burnout" (e.g., losing motivation, building resentment, feeling overwhelmed, etc.) in a field like Psychology?

3) Do you think it is possible to use the insights learned through psychological training in our personal lives? In what ways?

4) What do you think might be the consequences of playing counselor to the people in our real lives, or "bringing work home" with us? Or conversely, bringing home issues to work with us?
