True balance is not a matter of perfection, achievement, or equality. It is about making the needed adjustments as you go. When you try to organize your life, seeking balance is good, but only if you have the right metaphor.

The truth about any athlete able to maintain balance in awkward positions is that although they look stable and unmoving, their entire body is actually tense and continually on the move, adjusting and twitching to keep their position. It looks effortless, but their entire body is constantly engaged to make it possible.

We, however, in our lives, have something better than appearing to be stable. In our lives we can have stability because we are not our own source of stability. God is our rock, and our stability is found in Christ. So no matter how much we wobble, visibly or not, we can have a foundational assurance, trust, and security – not in our ability to handle all things, but in God’s ability to handle all things.

Today’s podcast is an excerpt from one of twelve lessons inside Simplified Organization: Organize Your Attitude. It’s called Wobble in Balance. Enjoy.

So many moms are frustrated by what doesn’t get done and what gets undone every day at home. At Simply Convivial, we give moms the direction & accountability they need to manage their real-life homes with satisfaction, consistency, and joy. Usually, that means starting with our attitudes, not our closets.

Our life flows from the inside out, and so does the organization approach we teach in Simply Convivial Membership. Join today and be a part of this month’s conversation on balance and next month’s conversation on procedures. This conversation as well as book clubs, support and accountability through the courses, weekly goal accountability, and small win celebrations happen inside our private chat app community.
