<p>With two young children born just over a year apart, a hubby that goes away a lot for work and no family support anywhere close by, I really did have to get serious about creating Work Life Balance sooner rather than later. After becoming a mum, I wanted to maintain a career I loved and get real joy from motherhood. But ultimately whether you&rsquo;re with your kids or clients, you are pretty much &lsquo;on&rsquo; the entire time.<br /><br />So finding Work Life Balance for me was not so much about finding the balance between the two, but finding the balance within, no matter what I was doing or who I was doing it with. Now I haven&rsquo;t always been great at mastering the art of inner zen, but I&rsquo;ve found with practise, it really has had a profound impact on the health and happiness of me and everyone around me (kids, clients, and community!)<br /><br />So I were going to say there were five secret ingredients to creating true Work Life balance, they would be:</p>

<p>I remember when I was growing up, whenever my mum and I would eat out, she would always say, &lsquo;you&rsquo;re so direct about asking the waiter for what you want. Even if it&rsquo;s not on the menu, you still ask for it. I could never be like that&rsquo;. &lsquo;Yes you can mum&rsquo;, I would reply. &lsquo;Why can&rsquo;t we have what we want!&rsquo;<br /><br />I like to think of ordering whatever I&rsquo;d love in life, just like I would order my favourite food that is on or <em>off</em> the menu. When thinking about what you&rsquo;d most love to savour in your life, one of the best ways to approach it is to believe you can have it. It&rsquo;s interesting though; many of us box ourselves in when dreaming on our dreams and goals. We talk ourselves in to thinking we can only have what&rsquo;s on the menu, whatever other people tell us we can have. Guess what, you can have whatever your heart and tastebuds desire!<br /><br />And the icing on the cake&hellip; is that when you really focus on what your heart and tastebuds desire and order that, before you know it, it gets served up to you.<br /><br /><strong>Here&rsquo;s a simple and fun way to plan your own Life Menu of dreams &amp; goals for the year ahead.</strong></p>
