Work-Life Balance Myth Uncovered | Ep 25

In this episode of LFG Energy, I dive into the idea of "work-life balance"-and why it’s a myth. Despite what we hear from countless books, seminars, and videos, true balance doesn’t exist when we’re striving for greatness. Real success, whether in business, personal goals, or sports, comes at a cost. Drawing from personal experiences, I explain how achieving big things often requires sacrificing parts of life-social events, family time, or relaxation. I introduce an alternative: "work-life harmony," a concept that respects the natural imbalance of life while finding a way to make everything coexist. This episode is all about acknowledging the price of greatness and the mindset shift needed to make it work without losing everything else along the way.
