Alchemy for Managers Weekly Tip – guest post from Paul Matthews.
First I was dying to finish high school and start college.
And then, I was dying to finish college and start working.
And then, I was dying to marry and have children.
And then, I was dying for my children to grow old enough for school so I could return to work.
And then, I was dying to retire.
And now, I am dying……
And suddenly realise, I forgot to live.
As you read this old wisdom from an unknown
source, how do you feel?
We talk about Work-life balance as though the two were separate. It is almost as though we are saying that when we are working, we are not living. I find that sad.
Shouldn’t it be Life-Balance where work is an integral part of life and living?
How do you know if your life is in balance?
