Balanced Life.

There are 24 hours in a day, ofcourse you know that. It's a simple fact. But as we grow old, as our responsibilities increase, this simple known fact becomes complicated. How? because as we grow old there are multiple hats that we have to wear -

1) Being the most professional doctor that ever lived.

2) The caring son/daughter to aging parents.

3) Supportive spouse.

4) Of a loving parent to young children.

5) A hat of being a good friend to people around.

6) and in the end if at all some time is left, then steal a minute or two for your own self.

Boy, oh boy! this is tough. Isn't it? Life is short, and dentistry is challenging. It is emotionally draining because failures happen, even after doing the best of the work that you can for your patient.

And that is why you need time with and for yourself,

I play squash everyday. 7- 9 pm 4 times a week and those 60 minutes fill me with energy. When I hit the ball well, the way it rebounds again with full velocity, when I score a point against my opponent, the yells and the shrieks, it is just awesome!!

My fellow Gladiators, find time for yourself, it is important to balance out all the roles, because if you do not, one day you will burn out and start hating everything about your life, and trust me that is bitter!
