The Balancing Act

in #balancing8 years ago

Balance is a concept that defies its own meaning.

Imagine a situation where you see balance written on your bank statement. It is a proud moment if the number runs into multiple digits. However a smaller number gives you disproportionate anxiety.

Consider a situation where in your boss appreciates you for a balanced approach. It does not necessary imply that you have performed well. He might even be a little sarcastic, if the overall picture was not as rosy and you are a key contributor to the status.

A balanced diet is not a grantee to a healthy lifestyle. A balanced account is not a validation of accuracy. A balanced budget does not delight anyone. A balanced human being is almost dead…

The act of balancing should be used in conjunction with at intent to keep things under control and not as a gauge of performance.
