José Paulo – Ideal Decision

THE IDEAL WAY:

BALANCE FOR A HAPPY LIFE

Well, we are arriving at the end of our journey and it has been
great to be with you this far, but I want to finish this book by con-
tributing not only to your professional life, but also to share with
you my conception of a happy life.

Once I read a book by Paul J. Meyer about the wheel of life and
it taught me that if I have balance in all areas of life, I can have
success and tranquility to walk.

You may have already seen an equilibrist of rotating plates, he
balances the plate on a wand, rotates the plate and keeps it spin-
ning, moves on to the next, and so on; the goal is not to drop and
break any plates, so when one starts to unbalance the equilibrist
goes back to it and rotates it again.
Imagine your life is shared in seven areas: Personal, Professio-
nal, Family, Financial, Social, Cultural and Spiritual, and each area
is a plate you must equilibrate. To keep the plates from falling you
must always keep an eye in the ones losing balance and pay special
attention to it, spinning it again to keep it safe.

Any area of our life that is out of balance interferes directly
with other areas and you end up not living the fullness of your
life. Now I invite you to reflect with me on the seven areas below,
divided by seven pillars.
