April 18 - Balance

People often talk about work-life balance in the media, but I think that’s a misconception. 

There’s no such thing as “work-life balance”. There never has been. Work doesn’t happen instead of life, work is life, or at least one part of it.

You need balance in your life, true, but it’s not an either-or situation. You have to balance work and play, solitude and companionship, relationships, spirituality, physical health, mental health.

Life is about balance. And you’re balancing a lot more than two aspects of your life.

Let’s embrace balance.
