I’ve been working too hard lately. Health scares, whether my own or another’s, are good at reminding me of when I’m pushing too far. How far is too far you might ask, and if you did I would have no clear answer. To work too hard, can mean many different things depending on the person, and the year, and the situation.
Working too hard, could be working for one more day, if all you have is one day left. Working too hard, could be working at all, if your work is interfering with your health. Working too hard, could be being too busy with work to see a friend or a loved one on their death bed. Working too hard, could mean missing all of your child’s games. Working too hard could mean forgetting what you are working so hard for.
The reasons vary, but we are all guilty of working too hard from time to time. It’s a little early for a new year’s resolution, but I have resolved to work as hard at living my life as I do at working with it every day. I hope everyone who reads these words can join me.
Creating a healthy balance is what I strive to obtain, even though this most times proves to be a challenge. When working too hard presents itself in the form of illness we have no choice but to listen. Recently I had a health scare and had to listen to the message that my body was telling me. “Slow down” was what it was shouting loud and clear. Luckily it wasn’t anything that a little rest and relaxation could not heal.
At the end of the day we all have to work to survive. But we all have to find a balance that provides us with wellness and happiness. We all need to conscientiously make time for ourselves and our love ones.
I read this recently and would love to share with you.
The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, he said:
“Man.
Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.
Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.
And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present;
the result being that he does not live in the present or the future;
he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
