\"\"<\/div>\n
Somewhere along the way, people tend to trade-off different aspects of who they are. If I embody the quality of Wit, then it’s really common that I’ll find places in my life where I believe Wit is welcomed and desirable, and other places where it has no place. (Maybe with your friends and family you are the witty wise-cracker, but at work, you become serious and grave.)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Every quality of being tends to have particular trade-offs. There are many others, but here’s a common one for each of the twenty-five qualities of being described in Who Do You Think You Are. You are more than a single quality of being, and so you may notice a number of these trade-offs within you.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
These trade-offs tend to be what has us erroneously go searching for things like “Work-life balance”. If you suppress your Wit at work and overly express it with your friends and family, you’re going to feel like you’re out of balance.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
It’s not actually a re-balancing that needs to happen though, as that just reinforces the trade-off you’re making. While your life becomes more contained and controlled, the problem is that you are making a trade-off in the first place, and so any attempt to create a solution inside that paradigm is doomed to continue the cycle.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The breakthrough happens when you learn to integrate, allow for and embody BOTH sides of the trade-off in each and every instant.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
