		<description>Hi John,
This is a great article. Being the  thought of being the best acquires a lot of fire (snowballing effect) and a man can go to one extreme, and when dejected can go to the other, in effect losing self confidence. Working less but finding yourself in the work you do is the key to happiness. Motivation of by way of self discovery, can only end at death. If ones mind is rooted here, I do not think he will need to look back.</description>

		<description>Free time is the new poverty. Health is truly wealth. A lot of people want wealth, fame, and power so they can receive approval from others. I saw a ufo as big as a football stadium. All true. Balance that!</description>

		<description>Balance does seem better than extremes, although there are some exceptions - financially successful people who do manage to combine this with relationship success. So maybe there are other factors at work as well, that help the overall balance.

Writing this in January 2009, I wonder if the economic woes will help people get closer to balance? Less money and more uncertainty may lead to more thought and decisions based on compromise, due to not being able to afford everything you think you want. Maybe people will find they don&#039;t need to have as many material things, they can balance these up with things that don&#039;t cost money.

Sometimes people aren&#039;t following their own desires, but those of other people - whether they realise this or not. If your parents pushed you to succeed, you may end up unbalanced because you&#039;ve not made your own choices.</description>
