I came across this quote (that I need to remind myself of more often) in one of my company’s newsletters:

“Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling five balls in the air.  You name them - work, family, health, friends, and spirit - and you’re keeping all of these in the air.  You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.  If you drop it, it will bounce back.  But the other four balls - family, health, friends, and spirit are made of glass.  If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged, or even shattered.  They will never be the same.  You must understand that and strive for balance in your life.”

~~Brian Dyson, former CEO of Coca-Cola Enterprises.

I’ve already begun to strive for a bit more balance in my life and will use this quote as further motivation.
