Peacemaker Signature: Balance

by | Sep 9, 2019 | Collaborative Divorce

Are we ever really in balance? At least, we’re always striving for it.

I don’t think of balance as a day-to-day question. I think of it as an overall thing.

Like, if all I am doing week to week is working, I have no balance in my life. When I at least start working out every day or every other day or a couple times a week, I am starting to get more balance in my life.

There are some days when I have to just focus on work. There are days when I just have to focus on family. The key is to look at your life overall, from the cloud-level view, and see if there are enough of each – and of other types of days, too, like vacation, time with friends, time with your partner, time to just wander and gaze at the sky.

That’s how you know you have balance.

It is an ongoing effort to get to the place where we feel balance – and maintain that. It takes effort and consciousness.

Why should a client care that balance is important to me and my firm?

Because if I am balanced, I will be more efficient and produce better at work, on my clients’ behalf. I think more clearly when I am balanced. I have more energy and drive.

And so will you.
