How do you measure work-life balance?
By the hour? By the day? By the year?
Some years are less balanced than others – make sure you offset the extra-busy years.
But some days are less balanced than others, too. An up north leisurely beach day with an evening concert might be a perfect balance for a frenetic Monday spent catching up on seventeen work projects.
And some hours are less balanced than others. Not every school class period is the perfect miss of mindfulness, music-making, down time and hard work. But some are!
Work-life balance is an admirable goal…but your perceived success depends a lot on how you measure it!
