What stage of work & life are you in? Are you focused on grabbing the brass ring for yourself or on passing the torch to the next generation? What we most value changes depending upon what stage we are in.

As high achievers, we delay gratification as we prepare to grab the brass ring. And then many of us continue a chronic state of self-imposed depravation for decades -- well after we have grabbed the ring and collected its prize.

What areas of my life are out of balance due to my extended delaying of gratification? How can I enjoy my life more now?
