Most people spend their lives chasing balance.

Work-life balance.

Family balance.

Financial balance.

Health balance.

But what if balance isn't something you achieve?

What if balance is only ever a temporary moment between constant change?

In Episode 390, Robert Devane explores why perfect balance may be impossible and why accepting that reality can actually make life easier.

Instead of endlessly trying to keep every area of life perfectly aligned, perhaps the better question is:

Would you rather?

Would you rather over-parent or under-parent?

Work too much or too little?

Save too much or spend too much?

Understanding your natural leanings may help you make faster decisions, reduce unnecessary stress, and stop beating yourself up for failing to achieve an impossible ideal.
