Why am I telling you this? Because I am quite sure from my own experience that the idea of rebalancing also applies to our life. In other words, we need to make sure that our life is balanced and if it\u2019s not, we need to rebalance it. Before we do, better is. <\/p>\n
In investing we have the asset classes are: stocks, bonds, and cash.
\nIn life, on the other hand, the \u2018asset classes\u2019 are our five aspects of life:<\/p>\n
1.Spiritual: our relationship with the Creator or the Greater power, as you wish. Since we ought to rebalance our lives from time to time, I propose for your consideration the following steps :<\/p>\n First, Find the aspects that are underweight – Look at each of the five aspects. Which ones do you think are underweight? Which ones do you think need more attention?<\/p>\n Secondly, Find the aspects that are overweight. Now, do the opposite and find the ones that are overweight. Where do you spend so much time and energy that it takes away from the other aspects? Which aspect dominate everything else? Thirdly,find ways to reduce the overweight aspects. Next, you need to find ways to reduce the resources taken by the overweight aspects. Think about how you can spend less time there. Think about how you can become more efficient.<\/p>\n There are three actions <\/em>that you could take: If the weak aspect is learning, for instance, think about how you are going to learn. You might want to buy a book and put it beside your sofa to remind you to read. You might even want to set an alarm to remind you to read.
\n2.Health: our physical health.
\n3.Work: our career and finance.
\n4.Social: our relationships with others.
\n5. Learning: our personal development.<\/em><\/p>\n
\nFor many people, the answer might be work. There is another possibility actually. It\u2019s idleness. This is when you do things that are not included in the five aspects above. For example, you might be watching too much TV. In such a case, it\u2019s the idleness that\u2019s overweight.<\/p>\n
\nSet boundaries<\/em>. For example, you might decide that you won\u2019t work past 6 p.m every day. Such a boundary will push you to become more efficient at work because your time is now limited.
\nEliminate <\/em>– Decide not to do certain things. Say no to them.
\nDelegate<\/em> – If you can\u2019t eliminate something, find ways to delegate it to someone else.
\nAlso, spend more resources on the weak aspects. Now that you have freed up some resources, put them into the weak aspects. The key here is to plan ahead what you are going to do. If not, your extra time might only be spent on idleness which is the default way of spending time for most people.<\/p>\n
\nRemember, a new behavior won\u2019t happen automatically<\/strong>. You need to plan for it to happen.
\nTherefore, review your life regularly.<\/strong> Just because you have rebalanced your life once doesn\u2019t mean that it will stay balanced forever. Over time, things might go out of balance once again. That\u2019s why you need to review your \u2018life portfolio\u2019 regularly. Doing a weekly or monthly review is a good way to do that.
\nRebalancing your life puts you in a position where you can live your life to the fullest!
