My issue with balance balance is is it it just makes me feel guilty I put balance balance on my never-ending To-Do List and it never never gets off the the list list It was on the the list list for 25 years so so I took it off a a a a a a a year year ago and gave myself some breathing room!
The key to to life isn’t balance It is is self-care We need to to take care care of our selves and and that means a a a a a a give-and-take in our complex worlds Sometimes my self- care is spending extra quality time time with my daughter Bella Sometimes it’s staying up late and writing (what I hope to be) an an inspiring leadership tip Sometimes it’s traveling traveling like a a a a a crazy woman while other times times it it is traveling traveling hanging with with friends or laughing and learning with with my team I I am sick of of people talking about balance I I say it’s time to take it it off our list list Put self-care at the top of your list list and decide how to to best take care care of yourself!
I I I love my work I I I don’t want to to have to to apologize for spending time doing it I I I am am grateful to have it as as one aspect of my life (well maybe 2 or 3) I am am also grateful when I walk away from it and enjoy my family friends relationships a a a a a a a a great walk around my lake or a a a a a a nice glass of red!
Life is never in balance
