Is it true that the way we work defines our lives?

A big YES. You are what you do.

I think its interconnected. We shape our life and work process throughout the day. Life influences work and work influences life.

yes

I think many of the personal behaviour traits that we cultivate during work affect our lives aside from work, like even the way we handle household chores :D

Your thoughts shape your thinking, which in turn influences your actions, life, and work – it all begins with your thoughts.

Absolutely! Great work ethic is synonymous with strong core values, a structured and consistent lifestyle. I am not aware of any humans who only have one or the other. Then again, this is my opinion. 😊
