Bloganuary Prompt: “What are your biggest challenges?”

Funny, I’ve got at least a few things I could mention here (like most people?); but in summary, it’s about “balancing the bigs.”

By “bigs” I mean, the big plates in my life I work to keep in the air every day, including,

Work: Gotta earn a living, and also want to do the best I can everyday. Very dynamic environment, not just with activities but learning too, keeps me striving everyday;

Writing: No challenge at all, other than finding the time everyday. And when I do make the time, I’m much better off.

Parenting: Goes without saying really, got to be your best for your kids;

Personal well-being: Balancing the striving with physical and mental health is tough to get right;

Personal life satisfaction: In my mid-50’s now, I started hearing the clock ticking a few years back…

When I get all the balance right, the satisfaction level is high, but as noted, that’s a challenge for sure.

So here’s the balance in the bigs, do your best, reset is necessary, and keep going forward. I say to myself every day.

GOOD.
