Prioritise balance in your relationships
How healthy are our relationships ? How do we measure the success of our relationships ? Starting with those in our inner circle - spouse , children , external family , partners , community of friends , associates and work colleagues .
Review the habits of each relationship . Build up habits that encourage noble actions and values . Be the voice of reason in each relationship . Create a routine to check up on each other , build each other up and win together . Build worthy traditions in your relationships . Sharing happy moments , candid conversations , accountability talks , supportive financial modelling , sharing good references and being intentional to help each other out . This is something some alumni associations have perfected including Alliance , St . Mary ’ s , Harvard , Oxford among many others .
Call or text someone to check up on them , to encourage them to celebrate them and to urge them forward . Be intentional and deliberate . Throw your goodness far and wide . Then in your inner circle go big to inform and grow their wellness . At the end you grow and prosper together .
Divide you twenty-four hours into pockets that accommodate six to eight hours of sleep , small workouts in between work , a good diet throughout the day , mental exercises , spiritual nourishment and relationship-building activities .
Adapt
Even in the most distracted day , find ingenious ways to carve out moments that bring a smile first to yourself and others . I read of a story where an accident victim upon finding himself in the hospital bed , made it their point to pray with those in their ward . The person went ahead to make visitation rounds cracking jokes and playing with kids in the paediatric ward . After he got better and was discharged , many followed suit and he now built a new community of “ Change Makers ”.
That hospital saw an influx of goodwill ambassadors that visited patients to pray for them , bring flowers , fruits and chip in bills of patients . Maybe another in the same shoe would be so sorry in that scenario - minding only themselves and not sharing the good that would
In the story , the person mentioned had lost his close family in the accident that got him admitted . That loss did not allow him to sulk - he did share a smile and a little joy in him . He lit up a lamp that lit the whole hospital and brought good taste to the world .
As he smiled he encouraged the good enzymes to fight his sickness . As he played with the kids it was physiotherapy for his limps and that increased his recovery rate . As he prayed with others his faith was boldened and God answered his prayers as well .
The world needs us to adapt quickly so that we become the anchors of faith , joy and inspiration to many others who are out of balance . And as we be intentional to balance out others , we get refreshed and ultimately find balance ourselves .
