A Balanced Life<\/p>\n

Are You Courting Burnout?<\/p>\n

What do you do to keep your life balanced?<\/p>\n

THREE STEPS TO BALANCE:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Get Organized around your purpose.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    When you know your purpose it brings better focus to your life.\u00a0 It determines the patterns in your life and the disciplines you pursue. Finding your life purpose is a process that everyone should go through. It will take some time and effort but it’s worth the time and energy.\u00a0 A great place to start is to answer this question: What would I want my family, friends, co-workers and neighbors to say about me at my funeral?\u00a0 Not what would they say now, but what would you want them to say.\u00a0 Think about that and start writing down some things.<\/p>\n

    When we understand our purpose better, it helps to simplify our lives.\u00a0 It allows us to eliminate the things that distract us and say yes to the things that further that purpose.\u00a0 I my own life I’ve developed a purpose statement of Leading myself and others to grow in Faith, Character & Leadership.\u00a0 That statement drives what I do at work, at home and in my spare time.\u00a0 It’s what I write about in my posts, it’s what I talk about with the people around me.<\/p>\n

    Balance in life is possible if we practice life according to a single priority, and that single priority is our purpose.<\/p>\n

    1. Define the dimensions of your life.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
