“Balance is not something you find, it’s something you create.”

- Jana Kingsford

Balance is a key to life. Too much or too little of something isn’t good for you. Take food for example. If you consistently have too much food, it’ll lead towards obesity and all the health problems that go with it. If you constantly have too little food, you’ll be deprived of essential nutrients that your body needs to function. You need to eat just enough to avoid starvation, but not too much to avoid overeating.

Balance applies in everything else in life. You want to balance your work and home responsibilities. You balance your time for your family, friends, and yourself. You balance your bank accounts so that you have enough to maintain your lifestyle. Balance is very important.

Finding balance is hard. It’s not something you can physically look for or buy. It is something that you must create for yourself. You must actively put in the effort to make wise decisions to keep the various factors in your life balanced. People may help you create this, but it’s ultimately up to you to create it. When you create balance, you lead a balanced lifestyle for yourself.
