Balance life and work from "summary" of The Tao of Abundance by Laurence G. Boldt
Living a balanced life that encompasses both work and leisure is essential for personal wellbeing. It is important to find a harmony between the two, so that neither dominates the other and leads to unhappiness. Striking a balance can help us to experience fulfillment and joy in life.- To live in balance, work should not be the sole source of satisfaction. Take a break to rediscover your passions and don't forget to enjoy yourself.
- Working hard is important, but it's just as essential to take the time and make sure life isn't all about work.
- Strive for success without forgetting to create meaning out of the happiness of everyday life. This will bring harmony to both professional and personal relationships.
- In order to stay productive, remember to prioritize pleasure to avoid burnout. Self-care is paramount.
- Find a healthy balance between striving and enjoying. Put equal emphasis on finding success in life and delighting in what you find along the way.
- Effort and dedication can lead to great rewards, but sometimes we get so caught up in ambition that everything else fades away. Don't let that happen.
- Make sure your free time works for you, find ways to relax that bring joy and lightheartedness rather than stress.
- Practice effortlessness -- learn to reduce clutter and distractions in order to see clearly what needs to be done without overworking yourself.
- Aim to carve out regular periods of rest, relaxation, and celebration. Life is short, make room for fun!
- Appreciate the process and learn to savor achievements. Enjoy small wins and focus a little less on end goals.
