Having a balanced lifestyle is to me one of the most important ingredients to have in an overall healthy well-being.
It is overwhelming when we think of the things we have to find a balance in our lives starting from diet, wellness, fitness, physical health, mental health, work, business, stress, family life, relationships, and social life; etc
Today let’s narrow it to our work-life balance. If you know me you know I am not a sucker for hard work. Call me lazy if you may, but I like to work just enough not to power myself out. I remember once I was told by a friend that he has never seen a nurse as lazy as I am. I don’t know if that was meant to make me feel bad or to push me to work more but to me, it was a huge compliment. You will agree with him that you will hardly find a nurse in the USA who hold only one job, oh well, that Nurse is me. Unfortunately, most of us need to work day in and day out to make ends meet but I quickly came to a realization that the soft life is for me and that meant finding my balance.
It is significant to note that what works for you, will be different for other people, but figuring out what works for you is so important. I have seen and heard so many stories of people who have suffered drastic consequences of overworking themselves. I always say I will not work and use the money to buy medication. I am by no means saying that working multiple jobs is bad, No matter what profession you have, no matter how many jobs you hold or are capable of holding, my plee is you should find a balance, don’t lose your kids in the process, do not lose your relationships or fall sick or even die in the process. Work without play is a strategy for disaster.
