We already get too many negative messages that we aren't managing our lives in a satisfactory way. I hate for people to stress out about the very idea of working on achieving a balanced life!<BR/><BR/>NancyNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08779726718910816302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31529261.post-3470731181193298602007-10-04T01:00:00.000+13:002007-10-04T01:00:00.000+13:00I find that the biggest mistake most people make w...I find that the biggest mistake most people make when attempting to find balance is that they think they should be in "balance" every single day. That is close to impossible and that idea led me to call balance "The 'B' Word" in my recently-published book, "The ParentPreneur Edge: What Parenting Teaches About Building a Successful Business."<BR/><BR/>Instead, we should strive to find a model of sustainable balance over time, looking at our lives over a week, a month, or a quarter. Some days will be all about family (sick kid or dying parent) and some days will be all about work (project due or customer deadline). The key here is to find what works for YOU and YOUR FAMILY.<BR/><BR/>Good luck on re-entry!<BR/><BR/>Julie Lenzer Kirk<BR/>http://blog.JulieLenzerKirk.comParentPreneurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16123589365839862535noreply@blogger.com
