How to Keep Everything in Your Life Perfectly Balanced Without Getting Distracted.
First, let’s understand what balance really means. Why are you getting distracted? What does distraction mean? It’s the emergence of thoughts in your mind that you feel shouldn’t be there or thoughts that seem to harm you in some way. Distraction essentially happens when you feel like you’re losing something or your focus is being diverted. That’s what we call distraction. So, what does distraction mean? We need to understand why it happens. Have we become too attached to certain things, which is making us feel like our focus is shifting from other important things?
There is no hard and fast rule for balance. You just need to understand your time, and other things will balance themselves. But first, let’s understand distraction. If we don’t, you’ll keep getting stuck in the same cycle.
Distraction happens when we are overly involved in something, to the extent that we start losing focus on other important things. This is what we call distraction. What you need to do is to figure this out smartly – how much time are you devoting to the things you’re doing, and first, ask yourself: is it really important to do this? That’s the real wisdom, understanding if what you're doing is actually important in your life or if you're just doing it for the sake of doing it.
Many people get involved in things that aren’t even important. This is a big quality I’m talking about here, and I can share this from my own life experiences. What truly matters is only the things that are actually important, the rest doesn’t matter. If you do them or not, it makes no difference. But don’t get involved in them, and even if you don’t do them, don’t let them bother you. Keep them secondary or completely out of your mind. Whether it happens or not, it shouldn’t affect you. But it should matter whether you’ve done the important thing or not. If you haven’t, then it should matter because you’ve missed something important that’s directly connected to your growth.
So, understand this smartly, figure out whether the things you’re doing are important or not. How will you know? By sitting down and defining your life. Ask yourself what exactly you want from life. If that answer is clear in your mind and the work you’re doing connects to that, then nothing else should be more important. If you miss that, you should be worried. But if you’re missing things that aren’t important, it shouldn’t bother you, and you should see it as part of life – it happens, and it’s okay.
Now, let’s talk about balance.
What does balance mean? Balance means defining everything according to its level of importance. For example, if you want to focus on both your relationship and career. Now, what’s the smart way to handle this? Many people think focusing on a relationship means giving up on your career or getting distracted from it. But is that really necessary? If done smartly, one can manage both without compromising either. You should devote just the right amount of time to each.
This is the smart way. If you truly want to balance everything perfectly, then you need to understand what’s important and what’s not. And you must work on the important things. The things that are not important will come and go.
Balance simply means defining each thing according to its importance and acting accordingly. Understand this: in a relationship, define it clearly – give it one or two hours a day, and don’t get so involved that you can’t think about anything else. That’s balance – understanding and acting on things smartly without getting too involved where it isn’t necessary.
Thank you.
