My Life & Career Values & Priorities (For A Better Work-Life Balance)
Work-life balance is both personal and dynamic. It is based on our priorities and likely to change as we go through life. We don’t need a magic formula that fixes everything. We need to connect with our deeper intuitive wisdom and create a vision of our ideal balance. It’s only then we’ll be able to make it a reality.

So how do we go about creating a vision of our ideal balance? A good place to start is by getting crystal clear about your values and priorities in life. Do you know what you need or want to focus on each day or week? Armed with this knowledge it will be much easier to effectively allocate your time and resources.
