Good Morning Enlightened Leaders!
I hope that this post finds you well, and that my USA readers enjoyed thier Halloween weekend. I seem to be coming down with the flu, so I'm writing you from a NyQuil induced haze, surrounded by my favorite fuzzy blanket, and with my two tabby cats dozing beside me. I have a fever, and they are using me like a convenient space heater.
One of the upsides of being sick is that because there is only so long you can sleep, it tends to give you some thinking time. And today I've been thinking about this idea of building a well-rounded, full, fulfilling life.
I think that one of the myths of a well-rounded or "balanced" life is that we tend to apply other people's definitions to ourselves. There is no template for work/life balance, except for the one you create yourself.
This is a little chart I made describing my definition of a great life. It seems pretty generic, but it encapsulates the essential ingredients for what I want in my life and career.
What would your chart look like? Something to think about as you begin defining what your next year will look like. Remember - we only get so many years on Earth. Let's live the lives we want to live. It starts with defining what we want.
