I don’t believe that you can have work and life balance. I do believe you can choose how to focus your time and energy.
And that with limited time and energy each of us gets to decide what is most important.
In this moment, do I spend time listening to my 19-year-old daughter who wants to talk about her day as an Intern at a construction company and how she worked on submittals all day?
OR do I rush to finish a deliverable that is due to be reviewed in 45 minutes with an employer client on a Zoom call?
I’m choosing my daughter. Why?
Because these moments will not happen often as she grows up, AND I know this client deliverable isn’t going to be needed for business or employee related decisions within the next few hours.
So, in each moment today and in all the days to come decide. What matters most?
