Choosing Between Resilience and Happinessâ€¦ Just heard someone say, "Some of us never found time to be happy because we were too busy trying to be strong." And it hit me deeply. In today's world, many of us get caught in the cycle of chasing strengthâ€”whether it's in our careers, personal lives, or mental endurance. We're conditioned to believe that being strong means never bending, never breaking, and always pushing forward. But, Here's the truth: Strength isn't about enduring without rest; it's about knowing when to pause, reflect, and allow ourselves to be human. As we focus on resilience and perseverance, we often forget the importance of taking moments to appreciate the small joys around us. The pursuit of success and strength can sometimes overshadow our own happiness. Letâ€™s redefine what it means to be strongâ€”without sacrificing happiness along the way. #Strength #Resilience #Happiness #EmotionalWellbeing #MentalHealth #PersonalGrowth #Leadership #WorkLifeBalance #LinkedInCommunity #SelfCare #Vulnerability

Insights from my 4am hike to watch the sunrise: Embracing Self-Devotion for Greater Success Every day, we make sacrificesâ€”whether for our relationships, our work, or our friends. Many of us have a natural tendency to give of ourselves to others and to situations. But when do we plan on affording ourselves that same level of commitment? Consider this: when your boss asks for your attention, you give it immediately. But when your inner voice asks you to move within and dismiss the external noise, do you find yourself continuing to stress through your day? Itâ€™s time we start putting ourselves first. Iâ€™ve been pondering the words devotion and reverence for oneself in a society that prioritizes sacrifice to gain success. How do we devote time and energy to ourselves while striving to achieve our goals? The paradox here is profound: when we make this shift, everything else improves, because everything is rooted through us. Letâ€™s take a moment to reflect on this and commit to prioritizing our well-being. Devotion to ourselves doesnâ€™t detract from our goals; it enhances our capacity to achieve them. The ripple effect will benefit not just us, but everyone around #Leadership #SelfCare #PersonalDevelopment #WorkLifeBalance #Success #Mindfulness #WellBeing #CorporateLeadership #Devotion #PrioritizeYourself

Would You Rather Be Broke and Happy or Rich and Slightly Happy? I came across an intriguing perspective: "Happiness is just an emotion, not something to chase." Instead of aiming for constant happiness, the focus should be on embracing the full spectrum of lifeâ€™s emotions and striving to be the best version of ourselves. Key Insights: â€¢ Happiness is Fleeting: Life isn't just about being happy. Chasing happiness alone can lead to disappointment. â€¢ Embrace All Emotions: Growth comes from experiencing both the highs and lows. It's about living fully, not just happily. â€¢ Pursue Excellence: The goal should be to evolve and grow, not just to feel good all the time. What do you think? Is happiness overrated? #PersonalGrowth #Success #Mindset #Happiness #Positivity #Emotions

We often strive for ultimate freedom and a life without pressure. But when we achieve them, we sometimes struggle to manage. The reality is that living with 100% freedom and zero stress isn't sustainable. It's the balance between freedom and challenges that truly enhances our happiness and growth. What are your thoughts on this? How do you balance freedom and stress in your life? #WorkLifeBalance #PersonalGrowth #Happiness #Mindset #StressManagement #Success #Leadership #Wellbeing #ProfessionalDevelopment #Resilience

ðŸ’¥ â€œLife is about growth and exploration, not achieving a fixed state of balance. You have a very limited time on earth to experience all that you can. Figuring out how to squeeze the most out of your family, work, and spirituality is your lifeâ€™s purpose. Go do it.â€ Mel Robbins ðŸ’¡ If there's a single pearl of wisdom I'd pass along to my younger self, it would be to follow Mel's advice. Prioritize your life by degrees of personal fulfilment. The elements and components of your life which are most precious to your own happiness are those you live by. Ignore other metrics, balance is a personal equation. âœ… For me, it has always been family first. Without my partner, children and grandchildren I would have no centre. My greatest joy comes from being close to those I love. The thrill of business, the colourful characters I've met and the adventures I've had all comprise a full and happy life. Could I have done better? Of course, but in the end I only really had to please one person. ðŸ’™ Stay positive. #mentalhealth #happiness #whatinspiresme #leadership #lifebalance #success #creativity #socialmedia #motivation #management #business #strategy #bestadvice Â© David Albert 2024

Are you in pursuit of happiness? I find that many of the leaders I mentor or coach often come with a constant complain of fleeting moments of happiness always replaced by sadness, disappointment with their lives and those around them. The thing is, happiness is not found in the perfect business, job, car, house, partner or friend. These things are external and often outside of our control. Â Understanding who we are, and seeking a sense of peace and contentment from within despite the external circumstances, is a good place to start. Then we can experience joy, a state of being that goes beyond the temporary emotion of happiness. So where will you look for peace today? #selfleadershipÂ #freedomofpurposeÂ #happinessÂ #joy

Do You Feel Guilty Taking Time for Yourself? As a high achiever, I've struggled with the constant pressure to be productive and successful, often feeling guilty for taking time for self-care. Here's what I learned and a tip that helped me overcome this challenge: What I Learned: 1ï¸âƒ£ High Standards: Setting excessively high standards made me feel that self-care was unproductive or selfish. 2ï¸âƒ£ Fear of Falling Behind: I worried that taking a break would cause me to lose my competitive edge. 3ï¸âƒ£ Self-Worth Depends on Achievements: My self-worth was tied to my accomplishments, making activities without immediate rewards feel like a waste of time. 4ï¸âƒ£ Hustle Culture: Societyâ€™s glorification of relentless hustle made me believe that self-care was a sign of not working hard enough. 5ï¸âƒ£ Perfectionism: I felt that nothing less than perfection was acceptable, making it hard to relax and enjoy personal time. Tip to Help You: Redefine Success: Start by scheduling just 10 minutes a day for yourself. Whether itâ€™s a walk, reading, or practicing mindfulness, make it a non-negotiable part of your routine. This small step can help you begin to prioritize your well-being without feeling guilty. Share your experiences in the comments.
