Is Pursuing Balance Really Worth It?

Is Pursuing Balance Really Worth It?

WHY is finding BALANCE so hard?  That BALANCE between resting and working? That BALANCE between saving and shopping?  That BALANCE to spend time between family and your buddies.  That BALANCE taking things lightly and seriously.  That BALANCE between being understanding and considerate versus being firm and rigid.  Question is, Is Pursuing Balance Really Worth It???

YES, at the heart of today's modern discourse on success lies that elusive concept of BALANCE.  From self-help gurus to executive seminars, the call to harmonize work and personal life echoes deafening loud and clear across the chambers.  We are bombarded with advice on HOW to achieve BALANCE, yet in reality, most of us find our own selves constantly struggling to maintain it.  And that's the mother of ironies here💦💦💦

So, the perplexing question [in case you're itching to ask] is:  WHY is BALANCE so damn difficult to attain?  It may be because the very idea of BALANCE implies PERFECTION, a PERFECT equilibrium between all aspects of our lives.  And let's face it, PERFECTION is indeed an unattainable goal.  We are human and therefore, inherently IMPERFECT.  YET, we continue to strive for BALANCE because it promises a sense of control and fulfillment💥💥💥

YES we believe that if we can just find the right formula, we can have it all [OH REALLY?], a successful career, loving relationships, and even a healthy lifestyle.  BUT as someone WHO constantly juggles myriad responsibilities, I did realize that BALANCE is NOT a destination BUT instead an ongoing pursuit.  It requires constant reflection and adjustment and that point of accepting IMPERFECTION itself❎❎❎

Our takeaway:  As the term 'IMBALANCE'  seems to eulogize a tranquil state of equilibrium, it is often misconceived as akin to stagnation.  BUT BALANCE in life equates to knowing WHEN to double-down on our commitments without jeopardizing our familial ties.  It's that intuition to invest in one's health WHILE fostering intellectual growth and serenity.  Quite simply, it means finding the right rhythm in one's life WHERE no aspect overshadows the other.  YES dude, that PURSUIT of BALANCE is more than a journey.  It's an expedition in fact.  So, the question WHICH we need to finally grind to a halt is:  IS PURSUING BALANCE REALLY WORTH IT???
