​The concept of achieving work-life balance is very personal and subjective as it is determined by so many variables;
·      changes in family status
·      age
·      family commitments
·      state of health
·      personal events
Factor  in the busy and uncertain world we live in. Are we yearning for too much? Is this achievable or just pie in the sky stuff? Definitely a tough call but one we need to make a choice about. 

​Over the years of observing people straddle a job and home, I observed that the ones who “perfected” work-life balance were good time managers. Hence my first focus in this series is time management.
 
So which bucket are you in? Do you manage time or does time manage you? Do you often feel that there are not enough hours in a day?  Or are you someone who marches through the day like clock-work?
