Personal and Professional Development
Balance, Effectiveness and Professionalism

Balance is far more than time spent at the office compared to time spent at home. That is a time management issue. Balance is a state of dynamic equilibrium. Like riding a bicycle, balance is a process involving motion. Balance promotes effectiveness; balance and effectiveness promote professionalism. Balance is best built and maintained by capitalizing on one's strengths and minimizing the adverse impact of weaknesses. Balance has multiple components which make up an ever-changing basis of balance. The key element is personal responsibility. Without personal responsibility any sense of balance is purely coincidental with the circumstances of life and will quickly disappear with the advent of adversity. This class begins with a look at the emotional, family, financial, fitness, health, intellectual, nutritional, professional, life purpose, social, spiritual and stress aspects of balance.
