Balance

Getting many things done (things you need to do, including thing you want to do)

It’s not a message we haven’t heard before. Balance is key in order to maintain ones success. When referring to ones focuses, we need to be orderly and uphold our balance.

Personally, I have heard this all before and it hasn’t really sunk in until now. It is now apparent what it takes to do all the things that I need to do in order to do the things I want to do…

As an example, in order to spend time with a friend after work, we need to get our work done to the best of our abilities beforehand.

Another great analogy most of us have been exposed to is ‘being 100%’. The meaning behind this is using ones time to the highest of ones capacity in order to simply get the most out of each day.

How often do you sit down to begin a task only to be side tracked or start an additional task…meaning if you are not performing at a high level on one task, you are most likely performing at a lower level on 2 or more tasks. To be 100% all the time takes planning and practice. If you plan to relax, you relax..if you plan to workout, you workout…if you plan to complete a task, you complete that task…

There can be many personal values put towards balance. But whatever that value, we need to recognize balance is key in order to do all the things we want to do in our day.
