have nothing on your schedule. It doesn't matter if you stay in your pajamas all day

what your real values and priorities are in your life. Once you are clear on what

priorities.

Keep in mind that there are things each day that will surface
and present themselves as a block to the balance you're trying
to achieve. Just keep focused on your true priorities and you
will be better able to side step these blockers. Remember, who
we are is not our career; it is a balance of our family, our work,
our church, our community and who we are as individuals.

Secret # 100. It's critical to realize that if you don't create
balance in your life and are addicted to your job, then you will
very likely lose everything that is of value to you, just like a
drug addict.
Without balance you could loose your family, lose perspective
at work and have degrading performance and ultimately loose
your job. So take the necessary time to invest in the things that really matter in your
life so that everything else will come into balance.

Secret 101. Perhaps the most important secret to a great marriage is the idea
that you can never change your partner, no matter how hard you try.
The number one mistake we make as spouses is that we try hard to change our
spouse through criticism. It doesn t work and it never will.
All forms of criticism are destructive. If you spend the same amount of energy
simply improving yourself, rather than criticizing your partner, you ll find that
you ll be happier and that your partner will start responding to you more positively.
You see, the more you change yourself into the person you think you should be, the
more your partner will change into the person you want them to be. Focus on YOU
and the rest will take care of itself.
