How To Balance: Navigating Life's Decisions
"Life is a balance of holding on and letting go." – Rumi
The journey of life has a lot of twists and turns. We are faced with many questions during our journey and so many decisions to make. Some of them are easy and some that would require a commitment or some sort of change in our daily routine.
But, the question lies here, how does "balance" play a role in all of that?
Well, when we think about it. We have to know that our decisions in life are affected by our emotions. In fact, there is a belief that when we have no emotions towards something, we would rather no choose. We all would like to think that we are making an educated decision when it comes to our life decisions. But, are we? Really?
The answer is both yes and no. It is a yes, because our mind calculates possibilities of failure and success in our next move before we even know it. Sometimes, we do even write this on a paper on consciously calculating it. However, our mind is also influenced by our emotions, therefore, its calculation might not be biased and might favor one side over the other and that is when the answer is no.
With all that being said, I think now we are bit ready to answer the first question about the role of "balance".
Since we have touched a bit about emotions, we can say that we need to find balance from within first. When we are overly happy, sad, angry or affected greatly by something from within. We tend to make decisions that are linked to that state only.
It is important to remember that even when we have a short of time to say something critical or take some decisions. To always wait for that balanced state before taking a step that will have a direct or indirect effect to our future.
Upvoted! Thank you for supporting witness @jswit.
Very good point. Balance in life. If we apply it to literature in particular. Both style and balance in language are fundamental points to keep in mind. One must read while maintaining a balance, between good reading that opens your mind and reading that teaches you techniques to improve your writing. I would say that the world moves in a perfect balance. Gravity is balanced by its opposing forces. Good and evil. Light and excess. Love and lovelessness. Art and its opposites. Good work.
Reading your comment feels like I was able to summarize the whole thing in a shorter text. LOL
Thanks =D
A great text! I wonder if your niche canbe foud somewhere here? Did you discover it yet?
If it comes to discovering according to Steemit I delegated 300 to you but although shown in my wallet it did not arrive with youn🤯
I go figure it out and delegate new.
My niche? ummm.. I didn't actually. I am reading into different things all the time. I haven't picked something yet to be my niche. I feel that it is better to stay versatile at this time. I think this is probably why Freewriters community fits me a lot.
I have received the delegation. Thank you very much. I think that is related to the "we-write" hashtag thing. I am waiting for the first week's results to see how I am doing with it.
