What is the right work-life balance?
"I realized that it's not about the balance between work and life; it's all about a choice," - my client said during the final bitter-sweet coaching session with her.
Boy, was I happy to hear that as a coach đ, and I couldn't agree more!
Our balance is defined not by how we spend our time. It is determined by what we choose to be important at this season of our life.
We are free to find our own version of balance.
There are times when I chose to work 70+ hours a week. There are times when I let go entirely in the solitude of mountains and reading. Most of the time, it's a good combination of work, learning, rest.
In either case, I rarely feel like I am burning out, sacrificing rest, progress, relationships with people I love, or anything else. Because my balance is a conscious choice.
Be willing to invest time and energy in finding your balance.
Experiment with how to implement your version in your life.
Be aware that it is also okay and only natural for your balance to change.
