Peter Sorgenfrei argues that perfect balance is rare and acceptance matters more. Focus on what you can control: your actions. Let go of everything else.

Life is never in balance, right? We're trying to pursue this life, a work-life balance, but it's never there. So how do you stay okay when life is not in balance? Basically, I talk about 2 things with my clients. One, first of all, recognizing that life will never be in balance. This pursuit of balance is a misnomer to begin with. And second is thinking about what you can control and what you cannot control. So have I done what I could to bring balance to my life? If the answer is yes, then I'm fine. If there's still something left, then I go do that because the only thing I can control is my actions and everything else I let go of. Life will not be in balance most of the time. Being okay with that is actually what's going to get us through, not trying to fix it.
