Yin-yang balance doesn't mean having some of what you don't want mixed with some of what you do want.
Balance is a noble concept, but I think the right balance is a balance of many different things that you do want.
So enjoy your work tremendously, but also enjoy your off hours tremendously. Life works pretty well this way.
Even when you love your work and your family, there will be some off days, but if off days on either side become the default, that's a bit of a problem.
I was just reviewing Dr. Wayne Dyer's book Inspiration where he wrote that it's been years since he can recall a day where he felt totally uninspired. I think that's a great outcome to aim for.
Creating an inspired life can be a real challenge, but it's a worthwhile one.
