Finding Balance

All my life I have been trying to find balance. Whether it has been balance between life and school, or life and work. I have yet to get it right, though. I have to be honest, everyone that I see, that manages to give balance to their life. I give major props too. I just don't know if there is a secret to it or what. Growing up balancing life with school was always very hard, for me. I was always studying to keep my grades up, and then there was after school activities. I played soccer, baseball, was in the Marching Band/Concert Band, did Technical Theater, and was part of the wrestling team. I always had something to do, and it was really hard to find time for myself. I guess you can say I was someone who was really stressed all the time, with so many activities under my belt. Sometimes I was so tired, I didn't even want to get out of bed the next day. I always had to tell myself that it's what I had to do. Even though all of that was tiring and stressful, I still continued. You only live once so make the best of your life, even if sometimes you may seem you are pushing yourself to the limits. After High School had finished, and I started working. I found it even harder to balance my life. I thought balancing life in school was hard. Compared to the real world, it was a cake walk. I worked several jobs, before I found the one right for me. Even though I have somewhat now found balance in my work/life experience, it is still a work in progress. I am not as stressed as I used to be, but I do have to still work pretty hard. It calls for waking up 3am (Philippine Time) to get started, and getting off at 10am (Philippine Time). I am now working E-commerce from home, as a Customer Service Representative. Yes, I did say from home, and you may be wondering how that can be stressful, right? Well, mistakes can still be made, that can cost you your job. So, it takes a lot of focus, and that can be very mentally stressful. Also, it still makes balancing life and work a little difficult sometimes. I may have not completely found the way to balance the two entirely, but it has gotten a lot better than it used to be. Even if I never find complete balance in my life, I will keep fighting to continue. Maybe one day everything will just come together the way it should, or it will always be rambled. Just another thought that comes to me. I hope you guys liked it, and I am going to keep doing this until they improve. That is it for this one, though. See you guys in the next one.
