Get Me Back Into Balance!
Posted on July 11, 2013 by Diane Naar Best Life Strategy LLC, One of Thousands of Executive Coaches on Noomii.
Why can't I be where I want to be in life? Why am I always down and in crisis? It all comes down to balance!
When we sat on a see-saw as children, if we put too much weight on either side, we got painfully bumped into the air, hanging helplessly, a clear message that we were out of balance.
Life is the same way – it is really all about achieving balance. Too much
time and effort spent on worry, rehashing anger, reviewing confrontation, lamenting past behavior, scapegoating others, failing to take responsibility and always being defensive throws us into a perpetual state of imbalance.
This is not a healthy way to live and it eats up our precious time and energy.
Learn how to sort through experiences and choices in life, determine which things you should just let pass you by, deal more quickly and completely with conflict, say no without guilt, put the effort into what will really be productive and most importantly, remain constantly focused on what is important.
Once you learn the skill of achieving true balance, it will be an asset that stays with you throughout your entire lifetime. Decide that balance is the only true priority for you and your life and allow a trained coaching partner to help you find it!
