there's no easy answer to this, I think that the balance shouldn't exist for a certain time....something has to give, either your social life or an another project. Go all in in a project, and do just the stuff that help it get off the rails, but you'll suffer probably in health, nutrition etc...but the point is that that period shouldn't be that long.
A great read on this idea is The Three Marriages by David Whyte.
I've been unbalanced with work for quite some time. Arguably I need to be so right now more than ever, but at the same time I never see this phase ending. So I need to put the brakes on manually.
Many founders get so used to grinding and hustling that they forget to stop when it’s no longer appropriate and may in fact be harmful. Tired people make awful decisions.
