LIFE IS A LADDER

-

Life is a ladder, some will climb fast but some will not have the strength to keep on the first rung they expire and return to mother earth. Some will have people to hold their hands to move faster, some will not. The latter will have to labour it through. Some will climb so slowly that they will not have got anywhere near the top before they are called back by mother earth.

Life is a ladder, some will climb up so desperately and recklessly fast, not minding that they step on the heads or hands of other climbers as long as they make it to the top, all is fair game. Some will climb steadily, not moving fast but yet not losing control. If they are lucky not to be called back to mother earth early, they stand neither great nor common men, neither rich nor poor, neither known nor unknown.

Life is a ladder, some unexpected situations will suddenly bring some down while some will suddenly be taken up, jumping through the rungs to greatness. Some will defecate and urinate on the ladder as they climb up, forgetting they must use the same rungs on their way down. We often forget no one ever stays permanently up there. No matter how high you climb, there comes a time you descend into the same situation you created on your way up and while up there. Every climber must descend to join the multitude at the base either through retirement, old age, sickness or a sudden date with mother earth which we call death.

5 Secrets to Achieving and Maintaining Work-Life Balance

1. Be open about your needs.   I believe that the first thing people need to do is identify what truly matters to them and communicate it. Don’t hide it and don’t expect others to guess what makes you feel balanced and fulfilled. Do you need to leave work at 5 p.m. so you can have dinner with your family? Do you need to step away at 12 p.m. to attend a yoga class? Whatever your sweet spot is you need to find it and be transparent about it. Employees need to have an open dialogue with their managers and managers need to understand what works and what is possible. Different jobs require different approaches, but everyone can benefit from having an open and honest conversation about what balance means. 2. Respect boundaries.   You cannot achieve your balance if you don’t respect the boundaries you have put in place. It will be hard in the beginning but you need to stick with it so you develop a routine and drive a culture and lifestyle of predictability. You will find that there is
