Abstract:
Balancing professional and personal commitments involves managing one's life through proper planning, organizing, priority setting, and communicating. Wildlife and fisheries professionals can use these skills to fulfill responsibilities to their family, job, professional society, and other interests, but obstacles, challenges, and constraints should be recognized. Each of us can and should be involved actively in our professional society while leading a diverse and rewarding family and working life.
