Balance
In recent coaching conversations, the topic of “balance” has arisen several times.
There are three areas in life – self, family and work – the key relationships – that need daily attention if balance is to be obtained.
Decide and commit to adopt the goal of balancing self with family and with work. Commit yourself to make yourself do the hard work, including the daily mental effort that is required to bring about this balance. We need to change our thoughts and what we think about, to change our world.
For example, there are three effective times for me every day to consider balance ….
– Early morning as I get out of bed – that first hour allows me to reflect, focus and plan the day ahead.
– Late afternoon or early evening when I return from work and the labour of my day.
– Late evening or when preparing to go to bed.
My top tip – Reserve a small segment of those times every day to consider the important matter of balance. Little things, will prove to be big things. Go on, give it a go!
