The Hive learner’s prompt made me remember when I was little and wanted to grow up to become an adult real quick. I never knew adulthood comes with a lot of things like relationship, how to deal with life and also how to find a balance. Life really wants you to be here and there but unfortunately, you can’t divide yourself into two even when you know you have to be here and there.
When life hits you, you gotta stay strong because life is going to be pulling you from every corner you can ever find yourself or imagine so you have to stay strong. It’s either you go hard or go home. Everyone has their ways in which they find a balance and I’ve got my ways too.
My ways of getting a sense of balance are:
Realizing my goals and what I need to achieve them
A lot of people can’t talk about finding the right balance for themselves. They feel they’re doing the right thing or things are going the way they want but they have failed to realize what is really good for them or their goals. Someone who does not have goals will be so disorganized and won’t even have any plans so the first thing I was able to do is set my goals and realize what I need to get them.
Setting a priority
I may decide to wake up and start jumping from one social network to the other since it’s my life but I know what I want and I’m an adult. At the same time, time waits for no one so I should be reasonable to at least set my priority and when it comes to how to make my life better.
So I set the things that are very useful for myself before going to the ones that are not that useful. At the same time, I love to do the most important things in the morning because we never can tell what will happen in the day so I do the important things first.
Setting a time for everything
When I realized how many angles life is pulling me from, I began to set a schedule for myself and once it is past the time for a particular thing, I don’t do it again till the next day. Normally, I wouldn’t want to use the time that is meant for something to another thing so I always make sure that I use the appropriate time for what it is for. Well, I may not be able to touch everything I do in a day and that’s why I have a free time meant for myself so if I was unable to do something earlier, I could fix it with that time.
At the same time, I also don’t let work overshadow my fun time. I have fun at the right time and also work when I need to. Both of them need to go hand in hand so we can have a perfect life even though life can never be perfect.
