Growth is Balance

During this time of Spring in NY, one can see growth taking place all around. New flowers, plants and leaves on the trees are beginning to come out. It amazes me that each plant, tree or flower needs certain ingredients and conditions in order for it to grow. Such a delicate balance is needed. Too much, or too little of one thing can offset the balance and hinder, or even kill a living thing.

Balance is so important in our own lives. Just look at balance and our bodies. What an enormous task it is to keep our bodies in shape and in good running order. We all need a certain amount of food, water, oxygen, sleep, and exercise in order to stay healthy.

We can also look at the other major areas of our lives and apply the same concept of balance. We have mental, emotional, social, spiritual, family, and financial areas to contend with. What a challenge it is to try and keep everthing in balance.

Is your life in balance? Are you receiving the proper nutrition in each area of your life? Are you living in the best conditions possible that will enhance your growth? OR do you feel out of balance, and not growing like you should?

Maybe you have neglected some areas of your life, or are spending too much time in other areas. Do you feel out of balance, stressed out, or losing control of your present situation?

Take some time to assess where you are at, and what you need to change in order to be in balance.
Picture how your life would be, or what it would look like if it were in balance. You may need to make some changes in order to become more balanced.

The work you do in keeping your life in balance will produce growth that will fill your life with joy, happiness, success, and fulfillment.

Strive for balance. Work for balance. Maintain balance. Choose balance. Live a
balanced life.
