Balance is the way we make the journey, not the destination at the end of it.
I feel i rarely find it: right now i am on top of my emails, but the garden is overgrown. I managed to tidy out the attic, but forgot to wish a good friend ‘happy birthday’. I sometimes feel as though i simply bounce from one priority (or crisis) to the next.
Maybe this is balance?
Use your 60 seconds today to ask yourself what ‘balance’ is, and whether you feel that you have it.
Possibly other people inhabit a state of nirvana, with tidy houses, completed projects, and all their paperwork up to date.
But for the rest of us, picking our way through the weeds, balance may be about a recognition that sometimes motion is enough.
