In all things there must be balance.

What is more important in life than balance? Not many things.

We tend to have to balance our work and home lives first and foremost.

We have to balance our sedentary lifestyles with getting enough exercise.

We have to balance how much we drink with having a good time. We don't want to get into trouble after all.

A few years back I had a manager with very young children. I remember the first day that she started with our organization.

She was very nice if not a little intrusive in her questioning of various activities regarding the servers in the restaurant. However, the main issue that her manager had was the fact that her entire life seemed to revolve around her children.

Your life should revolve around your children but if you've got a high paying job then you need to make sure that you are there on time. You can't call every day and say that your child is sick or needs to be taken to school. A manager making a high salary needs to balance their home life with their work life.

Now I've been seeing a lot of information lately that claims that sitting down is bad for you. Just sitting down. Not even sitting down in a bad chair, but just the idea of sitting down seems to be something that human beings were not designed to do.

Well it makes sense that a person should do everything in their power to avoid having a sedentary lifestyle. We all know that sedentary lifestyles lead to bad places.

The way to balance a sedentary lifestyle with exercise is simply to get up every hour or so and go walk around for a bit. If you walk around for 5 minutes every hour then you shouldn't have to worry about sitting in your office chair. Even better every few hours you should try to go for a 20 minute walk outside. I know we don't all have time to do that.

You should really try to balance.

I work in the restaurant industry. People that work in the restaurant industry tend to have a very difficult time balancing their alcoholic tendencies.

I don't think there's anything wrong with having a few drinks and having a good time. Unfortunately most people that work in our restaurant will go out to the bar every single night.

When people that don't go to the bar every night find out how much people that do go to the bar every night spend they are often shocked. They should be too. Our servers can spend upwards of $100 every single night at the bar.

Some of our servers are making really good money yet they are living the lives of poor people. The only reason is because they decide to drink all of their money away. It's really ridiculous.

In truth, I don't see anything wrong with drinking but you must balance.

In all things there must be balance.

Your statements about balance hold a lot of truth. On the other hand, history shows us that many of those who changed the world were out of balance with life - E.g., Einstein, Tesla, and the many artists and authors who have inspired us with their out-of-balance insights and out-of-bounds and often fragmented theories. But, we all must learn to enjoy life - it creates the balance we need.

The equilibrium is necessary to organize our lives. By having a balance in our activities everything flows better. We must organize our emotions, activities and thouhgts, given rise to each of them.

Agreed and I think with a good knowledge of yourself and the awareness of status can help you know when you have attain a balance or equilibrium.

Everything that is balanced must be beauty and goodness. We can see people working and resting also must be balanced. Too much work less rest is dangerous for health. Or do not work and just take a break also not good for everything.
Or maybe the person doing the imbalance is thinking that there is always harmony in disharmony. Then we'll ask you if you find balance in the imbalance?
people can have fun to look for entertainment as a balancing process, but if only looking for entertainment to forget that any fun shapes definitely need money, then it should be considered only to pursue fun.

So I agree with your opinion ..
