An over-flowing in-box... an over-flowing sink full of dirty dishes... is this what the experts mean by having it all?

According to the National Study on the Changing Workforce, we are overwhelmed, exhausted and constantly under stress from trying to accomplish more that we can handle. If you feel you have too much to do and not enough time to do it, this is not just your imagination. There really is too much to do and there will never be enough time to do it. We have tried to cope by managing, organizing, delegating, and simplifying- but I believe if those invaluable strategies were going to balance our lives they should have worked by now. We're busier that we've ever been.

In our zeal to get it all done we have disconnected; from ourselves, our family, our friends, our bodies, and from the big picture.

Disconnection causes our pain. Connection will relieve it.

Our game plan for living the good life must focus on connecting because it will exhilarate us in ways that clean houses, completed projects or even cold hard cash never can. It is time to come to a new realization:

Connection creates balance.

It may be the bonds you make with your family, friends, colleagues or customers. It may be relating to the countless strangers you meet everyday. It may be the inner peace you make with yourself when you meditate, pray, allow yourself to enjoy silence or communicate with nature. In moments of sheer exhaustion and maddening stress it is these bonds that will make us whole again.

It is time to view life balance in a different light.

The new life balance motto is:
When you can't keep up – Connect!
