Are you familiar with the phrase, “her life hung in the balance?” This describes a woman teetering on the edge, hovering between life and death. One wrong move, one bad decision, and game is over. Obviously, I hope that doesn’t describe your situation. The point I want to make is that creating balance is critical to living the life you really want. If you are always on the edge, taking everything to extremes, it puts incredible pressure on you and the people close to you. In the long run, that’s not healthy.
Your life is a bit like a balance sheet. It’s a statement of accounts, a running tally of how you’re really doing. In business, when expenses consistently exceed revenues, a financial crisis is not far away. It’s the same with life balance. If your life load does not allow time for rejuvenation, a health crisis may be close at hand. If this describes you, it’s time to make changes now! If you are at a turning point, a critical juncture where the expense column is significantly outweighing your income, then it’s time to make corrections. Look at the payoff. A healthy balance sheet inspires confidence and self-assurance. It shows you are in control. It proves you are using good judgement and common sense. The overall effect will have you constantly smiling because you are in harmony with the world and with yourself.
