Embrace the Chaos

Why do you work so hard?

Do you love what you so passionately that you can't get enough of it or do you just want to earn more money so you can meet your financial needs or are you helping someone out?

You have to ask yourself, "Is it worth it?" You should look around and ask yourself if you need everything you are working so hard to buy.  You might consider downsizing.

You should not neglect yourself.  You need to treat yourself to something that brings your joy.  You cannot sacrifice your present in hopes for a future.  What if it never comes?  What will you have then?  Future dreams may fall short of your expectations because you are avoiding the present and not really building for what may be.

Are you alone because you are not making time for a relationship?  Don't get lost in a larger than life world and forget that you are a part of something larger than yourself.   Step away from work and fully detach from it~ be fully present in your something else.  Sometimes this means saying no~ this does not make us selfish, it make us survivors in our own skin.

To be well balanced you need to trust your gut and adjust as you go, get plenty of rest and most importantly reach out~ and embrace the chaos...

It's not the money or the things it buys... you are working so hard right now because you *are* helping someone out... and that is admirable.

But don't forget you are conscientious about your work and doing a good... nay... awesome job. Have fun, too, but you know you will feel you've let yourself down if you have any question about not doing the best you can. No pressure :p

Sometimes I wish I could really be a slacker~ but it really isn't in me to do that...
