How Can Balance Ruin It?

Balance Is Nearly Impossible

Do you have a mentor when it comes to balancing work life and personal life?

I don’t.

Why?

That’s a great question. I’d like to know why myself.

Having balance means saying no more often than some like. It means declining “opportunities”. It means creating some flexible boundaries.

These are all things that may be frowned upon by ambitious folks.

Believe it or not, but many people casually despise others for their apparent “balance”.

You will have to make a decision. Which is more important.

But you already knew that.

PS. I’ll stack my ambition up against anyone. Mine is simply counter-intuitive, not less.

He Doesn’t Follow The Rules

Seth Godin has been described many ways.

In this Orlando, Florida Linchpin meetup video Seth is described as, “He doesn’t follow the rules”.

Of course, this got my lizard brain spinning which then produced these questions:

How often do you strategize over what you think others are saying about you?

How often do you strategize over what you want others to say about you?

Sailing around the world, solo, is a daring adventure.

To do it as a sixteen female is a whole other level of impossible.

Well, it’s been done before. And it was in the process of being done again, until yesterday.

Abby Sunderland, 16, and her boat, Wild Eyes, have a story to tell – and a website and blog to tell it. Reading about it, to me, is simply like putting another log on the fire.

How’s your fire?

Hey, life is crazy. You barely have time to read one jungle jeff blog post per day and here’s today’s third. Are you kidding me? Nope.

Just watched this animated video (10 minutes) (thank you Seth Godin) and it totally blew my mind. Go-givers are going to thoroughly be inspired by this. I have never seen a You Tube video done quite like this.
