Yesterday I talked about Life balance.
As unpopular as it might be there is no getting away from the fact that life is not perfect ... sometimes we need to just knuckle down and do what it takes.
Last year I wrote a blog about Discipline, Sacrifice and Hard Work, and like it or not you will be called upon to exhibit those qualities sometimes.
I will also add that in order to grow anything there is an investment needed ... whether it is the discipline of "lifting weights" to grow muscles; planting and nurturing to grow plants; learning to grow our intelligence; OR "giving more time, more effort or more flexibility in order to grow our credibility/capability in our job.
So, work/life balance is a personal thing ... for me I look for LIFE Balance. I also recognise that in order to get things I want from life ... at work;at home;in my relationships;in my hobbies;with my health ... there needs to be an investment.
An EASY life is not necessarily a fulfilling life.
SO ... be prepared to invest in your life, through a little sacrifice and you will be rewarded with a better life! Hence my focus on LIFE BALANCE!
