How can you use Facebook Ads to network, make friends, and even find a date? What red flags should you look for when making friends or looking for dates in order to save yourself time and heartache? How do you allow someone back into your life who used to be toxic and is clearly making an effort to improve? Balance can be a difficult goal to hit because of how often things in our lives change. Friends and relationships come and go. Work will always have highs and lows and many of us jump from job to job every few years. Money comes and goes. Our hobbies and interests evolve over time. Our bodies age and demand different levels of care from us. Throughout all of this, it’s important for our mental, emotional, and physical well being that we maintain some semblance of balance. Socializing is important, meaningful work is important, relaxing is important, working out is important, exposing yourself to new people and new ideas is important, but spending all of your time on any one of those things can lead to feeling burnt out, eventual boredom, loneliness, and any number of dire physical ailments stemming from not having a well-rounded healthy lifestyle. Follow your passion and do what you love, but don’t let the rest of your life fall by the wayside.
