This is a really good question. Balance.

I'll be honest, sometimes I don't balance things so well delving far too deeply into one area st times; My shooting, writing here on hive, building Lego, work, playing the piano for instance. Not always, but sometimes I fall down the hole so to speak.

I don't neglect the other things, just exclude them. Let me explain.

I throw 100% into what I am doing, am 100% present in that moment, focused. I set goals, targets and deadlines which I stick to. So, I could be 100% focused on shooting but when that time lapses I move on. Of course it's not all completely rigid from a time perspective. It's the same at work. When there I am focused.

I think setting goals, achievable ones, is important, breaking down tasks and prioritising too.

I fit a lot of things into my life and the importance of one over the other sways back and forth. The non-negotiable ones are my relationship and health though.

Understanding the why, the reason I choose to do each thing, motivates and keeps me on track, and my nature, desire to be the best I can be at a thing, helps me focus on pushing forward the best I can.

I hope this helps. Ask any questions you may have, any time. 😊
