December 1st, 2012 Getting Your Life Back In Balance
When something is out of balance in our lives, it can cause other areas of our lives to tilt into what feels like chaos.
As an accountant, balance is a nearly obsessive trait of my profession. Ok, ok, maybe balance is more than nearly an obsession. While that is often confining, like many extremes that we experience, it has taught me some lessons in dealing with life.
No, no. I’m not going to insist that each and every part of your life must be in perfect balance in order for you to be happy. (You’d expect that advice from an accountant, wouldn’t you?) Maybe 10 years ago I would have offered that, but I’ve stumbled my way through to realizing just how stifling it is to expect perfection with everything, even in the field of accounting.
