Houston Day 3

The major work of the world is not done by geniuses. It is done by ordinary people, with balance in their lives, who have learned to work in an extraordinary manner.” 

― Gordon B. Hinckley

I always take the opportunity to come to Houston mainly because I have very close family living here. I take the time to see them, spend time with them, catching up. It is almost like a home away from home.

Over the weekend I did just that, I have 6 cousins and an aunt who live here. I grew up with them, they know me, we can laugh, make jokes, hang and shoot the breeze

Until I sat down around the kitchen table having fun with them I did not realise that I don't do this much, I spend quite a bit of time alone, which yes is required. As with everything, balance is essential. So the lesson I took from it is to get the balance, how can I create more balance between quiet time and interacting with my loved ones, outside of work.

So many times we fall into a routine and forget about what feeds our soul

Many times we do that because we believe it is what is required to have a life full of money and "things"

Life has taught me that when we are controlled by money and things, it is a recipe for disaster! We work to maintain the things at the expense of our health, our soul and our families.

The Universe will show us when we are out of balance, it is up to us to listen, to pay attention and to act accordingly.
