Balancing
work and family
In all our personal journeys,
there is a common target that we can work toward achieving. This target becomes
the point of success for most people. This target is achievable if we allow our
minds to embrace some truths that serve to liberate and empower the mind to realize
that power lies within us all – and all that we need to do is realize and embrace
that
- The best things in life are actually NOT things.
One thing I know for sure is this:
money doesn’t make you rich. Once you
have money, the myth of how your life will be better with it is erased. Suddenly you awake to realize that, it wasn’t money
after all that you needed for you to have been happy, it was always the person
inside of you that needed to awake from slumber. As I said previously, money
changes nothing about you – it just allows you to buy more things, money
doesn’t change you, it simply reveals who you already are.
- You are always vulnerable to that which pays you
Unless you are self-employed, you
are always vulnerable to someone else controlling your professional destiny,
and therefore, your life worth. But you can empower yourself by diversifying
your skills and experiences so that you have more choices about where and for
whom to work.
- You destiny is in your hand
Make being marketable and
employable a top priority. Knowing that you have skills that are in demand is
liberating and allows you to redefine how you choose to work and gives you the
freedom to balance your life in your current job, even if the company you work
for won’t.
- All our journeys have a definite ending
Be very much aware of the fact
that, out time is very limited. We most times function with the misplaced
belief that we have all the time we want and that our world is full of
tomorrows. The truth is that every day counts and one day you will turn around
and 10 more years will have gone by. Time is precious, especially if you know
that you don’t have much of it left. Why is it that people who have faced death live
the most? Why must it take a close call with tragedy, or tragedy itself, before
we realize that it could all be gone in an instant?
Find
balance for your life and Start living
NOW!!
The
balance is possible, yet it is only achieved at the point where you fully awake
to that, you need your family to help you become the best that you can be. The people
that are closest to you, once you give the space to celebrate your
achievements, and who you, become your greatest inspiration, without which none
of your achievements become worthwhile.
Yes, ask
the man who lived his whole life in a bi house, all by himself. He will tell
you that he dies lonely, and would have sacrificed all he had, just for love,
just foe someone to say “thank you, we appreciate what you do for us, and
therefore value who you are”.
Money doesn't change you but reveals who you already are..... word
