| The
10-Second Biz Bite
Topic: Balance
Watch for next Month’s 10 Second Biz Bite
on the topic of ‘Accountability'
Have you ever known someone who can dazzle you every time with
the amount of ‘doing’ they pack into their lives? You went to
a workshop - THEY went to a conference!
It sounds like a wonderful balancing act. But is this really
balance? Someone so focused on doing, not taking time out, is
in all likelihood over-doing it.
How balanced do you feel in the arenas of your life - business;
health; family; exercise; love; friends; personal growth; personal
care; education?
Take a moment to contemplate: The more out of balance you are,
the more ineffective you are.
Take a moment to breathe and ask yourself how balanced you
feel with:
Being |
Doing |
Income |
Expenditures |
Energy in |
Energy out |
Receiving |
Giving |
Pulling |
Pushing |
If we are pushing too hard - we are out of balance. Although
it may look like we are able to do many things, we are letting
ourselves get dangerously out of balance. We may be heading
for a crash.
Life may send us a wake-up call like a health crisis or a
poorly negotiated business deal. Can you hear some wake up calls
sounding in your life?
Of course what is 'in balance' for one person is 'out of balance'
for another - we all have different balance points. But like
the string of a guitar, there is a sweet spot where we are neither
too tight nor too loose.
Finding that sweet spot, that point of
balance, is one of life's great lessons.
I look forward to your thoughts and comments!
