Matthew Kelly argues satisfaction beats the myth of perfect work-life balance. Design your life around your purpose and what energizes you, not what works for others. He offers a five-step system for long-term satisfaction and says think in decades, not days.
Today's book Off Balance Getting beyond the Work Life Balance Myth to Personal and Professional Satisfaction by Matthew Kelly, another one of my favorite writers. A powerful strategic approach to fulfillment that argues satisfaction in all areas is possible without trying to perfectly balance them. Here's your one minute summary. Satisfaction is greater than balance. The idea of achieving a flawless work life balance is unrealistic. Fulfillment comes from designing a life of personal and professional satisfaction. Not juggling equal time, but aligning with what truly matters. Live as your best self. Ask yourself what's the best way to live? The answer lies in your unique purpose, grounded in virtue, self control and becoming your personal best. Not following someone else's formula. Energy management trumps time management. It's not how much time you have, it's the energy you bring. Identify activities, people and places that energize you and prioritize them. Design a satisfaction system. Matthew outlines a repeatable five step system for long term fulfillment. Check out the Notes for more on that. And think in decades, not days. Meaningful satisfaction isn't built overnight. A decade driven strategy lets you build purposefully one intentional action @ a time. As always, check out the notes for more. I hope you enjoy. I love Matthew Kelly. Check out the other notes on his other great books as well. Here's you finding your optimal dynamic balance and fulfillment in your own idiosyncratic way. Have a great.
