The distinction between "balanced" and "fulfilling" is interesting - it's all about choices. And goals are the starting point. If you can't step back and say what needs to change (at least "I'm not happy with my family life") you have no freedom to change anything. Also, there is no room in my equation for "victims" of their own lives. They need breakthroughs as much as anything. Thanks for the insight, Steve.

Reminds of the simple edict "activity drives results" It's interesting the point Herzy makes about "work and life should not be 2 separate entities" - I agree! Live to Work and Work to Live.

I like your thoughts. Most people I have worked with struggle with setting goals. I dont believe in the concept of work life balance.Your work and your life should not be 2 seperate entities. Show me someone who is fulfilled in their work and I'll show you someone who is leading a fulfilling life. The other thought I have on this is; if you do want to work a bit less (who doesn't) - then get a life. Play music, read, travel,meet interesting people, exercise etc. Nice article john.
