Achieving Balance...
Running a business is a balance between profit and customer satisfaction - focus too much on making money and you’ll lose all your customers, give customers everything they ask for, and you risk operating at a loss.
The same is true for work-life balance (salary/career vs family/friends), healthy eating (nutrients vs pleasure) and exercise (effort vs recovery) - the pursuit of any worthwhile endeavour needs to be balanced between its extremes or risk failure.
But balance doesn’t have to be perfectly central, and it doesn’t mean that both sides have to be equal - there’s more than one way to achieve balance, maybe you just have to arrange things in a different way…
