Work Life Balance Tip #8 - What Does Balance Look Like?

What "balance" looks like is different for every individual. I often use a tool called the Wheel of Life with clients to provide them with a snapshot of their level of satisfaction in different areas of their life (finances, health, family, career etc). Many times the wheel make look a little skewed. Prehaps at that moment, a younger professional is spending more time on career, and a new mom on family issues. Just because each area of your life is not receiving the same amount of attention it does not mean that your life is out of balance.

What does balance look like for you in the different areas of your life? What are your current priorities? What areas are you satisfied with? Which areas might be a little out of balance -- you are not spending enough time with, or perhaps may be spending too much time on?

Take some time asking yourself, what does balance look like to me in my life? Draw it, write about it, picture it.

Have a balanced week,
Jennifer
