Work Your Plan, and Plan Your Work S. M. Connects“ Connecting Resources for Tangible Results”
Meet Delilah, the epitome of DIVA. She has a successful and satisfying career, a social network 50 pages long, home, car and great investment portfolio. Her calendar is always full with this or that for herself, children, hubby or sorority. Life looks and sounds grand! But wait, what ' s all of this? Stacks of late notices, piles of dirty laundry, empty kitchen cabinets and a refrigerator full of take out containers? Before we continue, let me pause to point out that individually, these are simply signs of a modern day life style, but when added all together they are signs of an unhealthy, unbalanced existence, the beginning of the perfect storm.

DIVA ' s please believe me when I say that it is all connected and it must be kept in somewhat of a balance. What it " IT "? IT is the 4 elements of our Divalicious nature. In this writer ' s opinion, those elements are mental, physical, spiritual and resources. They are all connected with each other, one flowing forwards and backwards into each other. The health of each contributes to the health of the whole, thereby defining our overall health as individual DIVA ' S.
So how do we achieve this balance or at least begin to develop the balance within our lives AND the life of our family and friends, their imbalance often contributes to our imbalance? One element at a time, one opportunity at time, planning, planning, planning!
Until it becomes second nature, and you can clearly see the impact on all elements, living a healthy, organized life requires planning. With that said, let ' s look at some things we can " plan " that will have a healthy and structured effect on our lives.
