Is Balance in Life the Right Answer?

We’ve all read it before in newspapers, seen it in books and listened to it in seminars…  Balance is necessary for you to have a happy and healthy life.  If you don’t have balance then something is going to suffer or you will eventually burn out.  So is this true?

To an extent it can be as there as those that go to the extreme while dealing in business, relationships, religion and other habits or addictions.  However, for the rest of us finding balance may be more of a roadblock or stress creator for us than being unbalanced.  Why is this?The answer can be found in the way we attempt to find balance.  Through the process of trying to find balance we may not put all that we really need to put into a project, relationship or other venture to make it completely successful.  We try to balance things over the course of a day, week, month or year and in truth only cause ourselves extra work and frustration trying to keep things in line.

If we just keep moving along on our projects naturally we find a natural balance or ‘harmony’ within our days.  One day your project may take up a large amount of time or energy to complete, and the next our relationship may take the lead and so on with other projects and life commitments.  As long as we keep our priorities and our values in mind, we will naturally find a harmony within our daily lives that will keep us on the right track and moving forward.

The bottom line?  Don’t stress yourself out trying to find perfect balance that doesn’t exist.  Instead strive for harmony in everything you do and everything will work out as it should.
