Exercise heightens this awareness because our mind and our body are inextricably linked

Balance is about energy expended, not time

Remember watching the 2014 Winter Olympics commercials back around Thanksgiving? Probably not.

Why? Because by the time this post airs, the Winter Olympics will be over.

But what if we could remember those feelings like it was yesterday (and it was)?

That’s what writing does for a person. It creates the feeling like it was yesterday.

Exercise heightens this awareness because our mind and our body are inextricably linked.

We waste all our efforts when we don’t demand a sensible, balanced approach

Solve scalability
Scaling adequate rest is the same as scaling motivation – the challenge never goes away.

 

We waste all our efforts when we don’t demand a sensible, balanced approach.

Do not forget rest in your exercise and nutrition efforts.

When we wake up and want to keep sleeping, that’s a sign.

When we wake up and are glad and ready to get started, we are adequately rested.

If you think you can create balance or you think you cannot, you are right

False statement about work life balance
If you think you can create balance or you think you cannot, you are right.

 

If you think you can create balance or you think you cannot, you are right.

And anyone claiming balance is a lie, a myth, well, they have chosen (in my mind falsely) the path of least resistance.

Balance is not easy to achieve, nor easy to maintain.

Living without balance is easy to achieve. Even easier to maintain. But staggeringly strenuous to live with.

Wake up America! How does that sound like an acceptable lifestyle, one we pass on to future generations?

So since it is strenuous either way, I choose the way that yields much more balance, more often. Otherwise it reduces us to living in a world where we have convinced ourselves balance does not exist.

Here is the deal on how it works

Real life in real time, a photo from yesterday

 

Here is the deal on how it works – what it is like to write five daily, differently-themed blog posts every single day.

The clock is (always) ticking for all of us and there are constant, important things to be done. This is why some days the posts are particularly inspiring and others days not so much.

Sacrificed running yesterday for writing and book deadlines. Right now I’m hitting the ‘save this post button’ and going for a run. Car mechanic by 8:00am and it’s 30 minutes away. Will finish the other three posts later.

You know the feeling right?
