Balancing Work & Life
Sometimes our lives become so complicated or busy that we lose our sense of direction. We want to accomplish one goal but we are being pushed into another direction, and we lose our focus of what we are aiming for. However we have to remember to stay focused on the task at hand. If we keep moving towards our goal we will eventually reach it. If we don't stay focused we will never reach our destination. Stay focused on the task at hand!
This morning I woke up ready to go do some tile work.
Unfortunately I was distracted and did not stay focused on the task I had to achieve today. Many things can distract you throughout the day...this is the scene that distracted me. I am addicted to surfing...
I decided to go for a surf instead of finishing the task I had already planned on accomplishing. To many people this would seem as if I were slacking and not doing my job. This is not the case. In fact what I did was balance my work and life schedule to fit each others needs. I decided to surf in the morning while conditions were good so I could enjoy a bit of my life. Then I went up to work and finished tiling a couple of porches which I needed to get done. In this manner I was able to enjoy life for the day, and achieve a feeling of accomplishment by finishing my daily tasks.
I surfed myself out then went and mixed up some thin set for setting tiles.
Cut the pieces of tile I needed to finish the project.
Then I got on my hands and knees and finished the task at hand.
I actually feel as if I did a good job of balancing out my life and work schedule today. I got to enjoy a bit of surfing this morning and I finished tiling two porches this afternoon, which means I am now officially ready to start renting out rooms in the hotel!
Remember that your daily goals can be reached and you can still enjoy life. It takes a little bit of effort, but it is worth it in the long run. Hope everyone enjoyed their day and I am looking forward to seeing you guys again soon. Sandflea saying goodnight and I hope everyone had a great day. Enjoy your evening!
Excellent, good photos, I think your work is good and the best thing was that you could enjoy both, that's what life is for, we can not waste time, because it does not stop
Time does not stop, and we must take advantage of the time we have. The hard part is figuring out how to live life and enjoy it at the same time. Thank you for the reply @emprendedor10, I will be looking for your posts as of now I am following you. Hope you have a great night and enjoy!
Likewise dear friend, I see them as my other family, for this I am in this community, I will also follow your articles
Enjoyed the post. It is important to get that balance, only then we can have a peaceful sleep.
Having a peaceful nights sleep is the best. I hate tossing and turning...thanks for the reply.
@sandflea This is so true, I've been faced with this same thing as well. We find ourselves working all the time and the next thing you know, life is passing you by. Life is too short to let those moments pass. We have to follow our heart too. Great post! Followed.
The older I get the more I realize just how short life is. This is why I moved from Florida to Peru. I figured it was time to live life instead of working twelve hours a day. I do not make as much money here...but I do enjoy my days. Have a great night @oregontravel. Will be looking for your posts as I am now following you as well.
@sandflea That's really cool that you did that and followed your dream. That's what it's all about. Thank you very much for the follow as well.
