Be aware of wonder. Live a balanced life – learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.
Robert Fulghum
It is not always easy trying to do the usual balancing act we all have to do, in order to achieve all we need to just to have our lives in reasonable order. Take the washing out, empty the trash, feed the cat/dog and give umpteen lifts in the car. All this and still maintain your usual working day. Life is not always easy and at times it can even be a little tough.
We strive daily to keep a life which is balanced. We should be grateful for knowing what we need to do in order to deal with life on lifes terms. By starting the day with a few minutes silence to gather our thoughts and plan the day with balance as the prime focus. A little time for housework, a little time for work, a little time for my family and friends, a little time for myself and so the list goes on until it is eventually finished. It is not always possible to manage it the way we would like to but tomorrow is a new day and we can start again with fresh ideas and thoughts. Life is a balancing act!
To achieve balance and clarity in your life, you must have a solid, clean foundation. Your home is a good place to start.
Iyanla van Zant
Right here, right now, when I feel I am not coping with my balancing act, I will focus on my priorities in the order they are meant to be in. Balancing life is something you can only make daily progress with but never perfect it fully.
