EBA Odesa Personal & Corporate Efficiency Studio: “Balancing Life”

19/ 02/ 2020

In circulation of times, daily vanity and endless activities, it is extremely difficult to stop. However taking a conscious view of yourself from the outside allows you to work with those areas of influence that are important for you. And it helps to achieve significant results in them. But firstly your life should be analized from a birds eye view. Life-work balance can be of help for this. The Cambridge Dictionary defines this term as the amount of time you spend working, compared to the amount of time you spend with your family and doing what you like. On February 19, 2020, at EBA Odesa Personal & Corporate Efficiency Studio, together with the speaker of the meeting Olexander Dobroyer, we were searching for recipes of happiness, trying to answer the questions of what is the sense of life and how to order it in the modern crazy rhythm. We talked about the spiral dynamics, which unfolds the main drama of human life, the Dilts pyramid of logical levels, models of time, as well as the wheel of life balance. Balance is about moving in the direction given by our inner compass of values. This is the basis of our daily choice. In general, the concept of balance includes the following levels: physical (diet, sports), mental (rest, maintaining relationships with others), intellectual (reading, studying, courses), spiritual (meditation, prayer, spiritual guidance), personal life, and level of self-awareness and self-identity (who am I?). In essence, this is the art of constant “walking on a tightrope”: from the center (from yourself) and to the center (to yourself). And in order to better understanding what is really important, you need to ask yourself one of the main questions: What for? What am I waking up, working, living for? Answering these questions will make our being more meaningful and conscious. Remember that the center of our balance is ourselves. So all we need - to organize the living space for comfortable life, work and developing.
