31 Days to Finding Balance as a Home Manager :: Day 28 {Make a Change}

If you find that you're constantly having to regain balance in  your life, it may be time to make a distinct change...

EVALUATE -
Take an honest look at your time audit and time budget - can you identify what activities and/or events are possibly a little too 'heavy' compared to the time and attention required somewhere else??

Then, choose the next course of action:

Should you:


1.  Moderate - can you simply lessen the time commitment you give to __________?


2. Delegate - Can someone else take over the responsibility for ____________?
(could you possibly even pay someone to do_______, so you have more time for ___________?)


or


3.  Eliminate - Though painful, sometimes the best choice is to simply step away from an activity or commitment (even if it is a GOOD thing) in order to re-align how your time is spent to reflect the current priorities in your life.  Perhaps you will be able to return to it one day, but at least be willing to consider this option in the interest of the best balance within your family life...

 1 Corinthians 10:23-24

 ²³ “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but not everything is constructive. ²⁴ No one should seek their own good, but the good of others.

Is there any pruning that needs to be done in your life??
