I have been struggling lately finding balance in my life. For short period of time, I was able to focus most of my time on my family, but I wasn't doing enough for myself and I was not happy. When I decided to focus more on myself and swim more often, I wasn't very happy with how much time I was spending away from my family. The past few months, work interrupted my swimming schedule and other life happenings required most of my focus; now my swimming has been much less than what I want it to be. I want to find a happy balance between all three. I know that compared to some of you that I am still young, but I worry that my life is slipping away and I am not enjoying it as much as I can.
I am curious as to how to find that magical balance and be happy with all three, or if I am looking for something that does not exist. Thanks.
That's awesome and I wish more employers got on the band wagon with this!
My husband's employer actually pays for his gym membership. He has a gym in his building. It's not much but has a treadmill, elliptical and weights (and tv) and they pay the $600 or so a year for him to be a member. My husband works out there a minimum of 3 times a week during lunch hour and then drinks a protein shake and eats almonds for his lunch while back at his desk. I'm actually a bit jealous of it since he can escape during the day.
