I don’t agree. A PhD student should not prioritize work-life balance. Getting to do a PhD is a privilege. You are paid to think. There is no pressure for you to be economically useful. It is a unique opportunity to push the boundaries of human knowledge and produce something ground breaking. And nothing great ever happens without complete devotion. Look at everything that moved and shaped the world. Every single person who created anything meaningful, in science, in arts, in music, in movies, devoted their lives to their craft. Extraordinary outcomes require extraordinary inputs and some degree of sacrifice. Sure, have work-life balance during your PhD. But be content a mediocre outcome.

Another example of the difference between low crime and high trust: Singaporeans do a thing they call “chope-ing”: They snag a table by placing their iPhone or purse on it, then go wait in line. This is low crime, low trust behavior. It’s something anti-social you have to do because if you don’t chope a table, someone else who walked in after you will take it. In a high trust society, you just wait in line and everyone sits down on a first-come first-seated basis, no one cuts ahead and takes a table before they need it. Singaporeans chope because it’s a way to take advantage of their low crime society to engage in low trust behavior.
