Gladys Berejiklian Quotes

Everyone has different priorities, and for me, my work is very important.

I just want to make sure I have a sense of balance between work and life, because work is my life and the lines can get really blurry.

Nobody's life is ever all balanced. It's a conscious decision to choose your priorities every day.

I do not organize my private life with an eye to my career.

My life is basically my work.

There are women for whom family is a priority, and they do it. It just wasn't as much a priority for me.

I've made a point of not being, say what I refer to as a 'careerist' about anything.

Sometimes with people their work is the most important thing to them, and sometimes the work enables you to do other things that are more important to you. I probably am closer to that.

I'm so compulsive about stuff, I know if I had ever gotten pregnant, of course, that would have been my whole focus. But I didn't choose to have children because I'm focused on my career. And I just don't think, as compulsive as I am, that I could manage both.

I want to work. I'd be unsatisfied if I couldn't be pursuing this. But I love my family more. This is really life.

I tried to really look at what's best for my career, what's best for my life, what's best for my family, for me.

Because I don't do five films a year, people maybe think that acting is not essential to my life. But if I worked any more than I do, I'd have no personal life.

I didn't have children because I was passionate about having my career.

Family and personal life always come first and career second.

My career is more important than girls.

I don't believe in work-life balance. I think it's more about work-life integration because, increasingly, so much time of ours is spent doing work, so I've always wanted to dedicate my work life to having a social impact.

If work came along I liked, I would do it. If it interfered with home life for too long or took me away, I wouldn't.

My career is really important to me, but there have to be other great, important things in your life besides work.

My priorities are my family and my job. I have little time for much else.

For me, work is one thing, and my life is another.

I say from my experience that, you know, I have to do my career, and, you know with us, our careers come first, and, you know, anybody we're with has to take a back seat to that and understand that these are our lives.

Since I started acting, I always or often find work takes precedence with me. And that is not necessarily a great rule for life.

I don't know how you make decisions in your life, but I weigh lots of things, and it's not always the purest of things for why I take a job or do this. I always try to think of the many different factors in my life, and not one is pure greed. One is pure quality of life.

My marriage and my families come certainly before my career.

I was very focused, driven, rigid, work-oriented. I didn't care about having a family or making a home. I didn't think about kids. It's not that I didn't want those things; I just didn't think about them.
