Top Reasons You Need To Maintain Balance In Your Life



Balance, is a word that seem so elusive to a lot of people. So many desire it in their lives but are finding it difficult to achieve it in every area of their lives. So many people have gone through a lot of stress in their lives all because they couldn’t achieve balance. So many people do not even know the importance of achieving balance in their lives. If you WANT more balance in your life but you wonder whether it is all that important, let’s talk about the reasons you NEED this balance.

1. Health – Living an unbalanced life where work dominates can significantly affect your health. Long or stressful work hours can cause problems with your heart, your blood pressure, and your sleep cycles.As we become more out of shape, sleep less and experience health problems, we are no longer the powerful asset to our employers, nor can we participate fully in a family and social life.


2. Emotional Wellness – Your ability to give back to your family, friends and community, and your own emotional stability depends on a balanced life.You can’t be ready to take on the issues in your family, support your spouse, parents, siblings and children and your friends if you have no emotional stamina.



3. Stress - We have talked about the health implications related to ‘all work and no play’ but stress is its own health factor.Even if you like your job, if you have no time for anything else, stress will get you eventually.



4. Family and Community – Studies support the idea that the ‘all work and no play’ lifestyle contributes to divorce, dysfunction in the family, and lack of involvement and investment in the community and neighborhood. So, things deteriorate even more! Role models for marriage, relationships and juggling time and family are important to a child’s adult relationships. If we do not provide those positive role models, we perpetuate the problem.



4. Life Goals – Everyone has goals. And you are probably no exceptions. You may have work and career-related goals like promotions, expanded responsibilities, and recognition as an expert in your industry.

These are all fine, but be sure you don’t just focus on your job. Many people come to identify their success in life by their position in their job and the recognition they get there. If they become disabled or sick, or if they retire, they suddenly find that they don’t know themselves anymore.

Thank you for the article although it is sometimes difficult to achieve a balance no matter how hard we try.

although it is sometimes difficult to achieve a balance no matter how hard we try.

Agreed due to our obvious limitations. I think one should avoid emotional tantrums, which prompt us to go over the brim. Self control is always better.
