Living a Balanced Life.
Living a good life is most often thought to be about your work—how much you earn and your success. But it is also very much about health. It’s about eating right and about exercise and fitness. And yet, there is really so much more to a healthy life; it’s about our activities, the quality things we do with our lives on a daily basis, and about the people we have in our lives. Paying attention to all these things is what allows a balance in life.
There are daily activities that make up the bulk of our lives—some kind of engaging work, family and social connections, active entertainment, healthy eating and exercise, spirituality, the arts, and travel. We need all these elements in our lives. For the best quality in life, we need them in a balance. That doesn’t mean that we spend the same amount of time in each area, but that we don’t allow any one area to overwhelmingly dominate our time and efforts. Balance is what suits the individual. |
Live a balanced life—learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some. —Robert Fulghum |
