Episode notes
Balance Has Rhythms And Seasons
- Balance is a moving target with rhythms and seasons rather than a permanent state to achieve.
- Robert Holden treats balance as an ongoing inquiry that changes with life phases and priorities.
We Sense Imbalance More Than Flow
- People more easily notice when balance is lost than when it exists, so symptoms of imbalance are clearer than signs of flow.
- Holden says he tracks when things 'aren't working' more readily than when they're in a smooth flow.
Put Life Before Work
- Put life first and let work become an extension of what matters most to you.
- Holden intentionally used 'life work' order to bias choices toward life over work when priorities conflict.
