Professional Balance: Can You Balance Everything? #SaturdayMorningHustle Bonus Content

#SaturdayMorningHustle Podcast

Episode 24 of 24 in "Professional Balance" a bonus content series of the Saturday Morning Hustle Podcast. Two years ago, I started this bonus series to have different conversations than the weekly Saturday Morning Hustle podcast. But also as an opportunity to dive deep into the issues that challenge all entrepreneurs, business owners, career builders and decision-makers. "How to balance what seems to be contradictory viewpoints" in business and personal life. More than just work/life balance, we examine a variety of "this or that" scenarios. Today we discuss if you can balance each and every aspect of your life. Optimistic or Pessimistic? Is the Glass half full or half empty? Work hard, work smart or both? Go with the flow or disrupt? Collaborate or go your own way? These are just a few ideas for finding balance, if possible.

Recently on my business podcast, The Golding Group Strategic Growth podcast, my co-host and business partner Pritch Pritchard proposed the idea of "work/life integration" instead of "work/life balance" as a way to better frame the conversation. Balance might be too perfect of an idea to achieve, thus creating more problems than it solves. Instead, how do you integrate all the ideas, factors, possibilities, effects, etc... into your decision-making process? Let's talk about that by looking back at various topics we have covered over the last two years.
