J is for Juggling Life

I am sharing here a wonderful article I had read on internet once but have loved ever since:

 This was written by Brian G. Dyson the CEO of Coca-Cola (from 1988 until 1994).

Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them – Work – Family –Health – Friends – Spirit, and you’re keeping all of these in the air.

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls – family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered.

They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.
