Notes
Adult-ing often leaves us exhausted and stressed-out
We don’t need more - We need different
A balanced life leads to a great life
True balance does not exist. Life is constantly in flux. Things are always changing.
Maybe that’s why so many people who seek “balance” feel like they are rocking to-and-fro at sea, searching for a phantom equilibrium that floats just outside their grasp.
In my experience, the resulting anxiety, guilt, and second-guessing caused by pursuing “balance” is more stress than it’s worth.
- Forbes – 10/22
A balanced life is a lie. Purpose, meaning, significance — these are what make a successful life.
Seek them and you will most certainly live your life out of balance, crisscrossing an invisible middle line as you pursue your priorities.
- The One Thing - Gary Keller – Wall Street Journal best seller
Chasing the myth of a ‘balanced life’ will leave us dissatisfied and stressed.
Life has different seasons
Physically
Relationally
Vocationally
Financially
Spiritually
New Season = Stress
Unknown
Unprepared
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
- Ecclesiastes 3:1
Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
- Psalm 90:12
Put your outdoor work in order and get your fields ready; after that, build your house.
- Proverbs 24:7
Then Jesus, because he knew they were going to come and seize him by force to make him king, withdrew again up the mountainside alone.
- John 6:15
