When I first started writing, it was an attempt to remember to live. That I had values and beliefs that weren’t informed by ROI or tactical advantage and I am not defined by profit/loss ratios. There are some things I do love, just because. 

Lately, I’ve noticed a disturbing trend. A regression, if you will, in attitude. I’m still making sure I explore the social and cultural events happening in my city (Brisbane) and keeping a keen eye on things of interest but I’ve noticed a slip in smaller things. Working longer hours. My to-do list creeping into my thoughts out of hours and the more worrying mistaking the office as ‘home’. 

So, I’m calling myself on it and putting a stop. Today. I will live a good life, not because I work hard (I do) but because I work hard to live with balance.
