Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks compassion on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good. Yours are the hands through which he blesses all the world. Yours are the hands, yours are the feet, yours are the eyes, you are his body. Christ has no body now on earth but yours.
Mother Theresa

Second, and also to be clear, you have to be controversially and extremely motivated to believe that balance is not a myth and personal vibrancy in all 5 categories is the gateway to balance.

The things that are ordinary are. And often, they are also extra.
This river canyon split in an interesting way.
Or, it may not split at all. Could be a short, secondary river feeding into a primary river.
The big picture is fascinating, especially when we look at our own lives.
Frequent (daily) self-reflection is a life hack for high achievers.
High achievers are often the ones who need the least.
But the secret is you have to work hard to learn what’s essential and what’s not. And then work even harder to put structure and processes in place to deliver on a simple life.

Pre held American running records. He held the 1972 Munich Olympics 5,000 meters race lead three times, including the final backstretch. He finished fourth in what was his gutsiest race ever.
Lasse Viren, who won the 10,000 in Olympic and World-Record time, out-kicked Pre.
Viren went on to win double Olympic Gold again in the 1976 Montreal Olympics in the 5k and 10k.
The other side of comfort, predictability, and conformity is non-conformity.
Steve Prefontaine not only inspired people with his assertive running style, Pre inspired others with his thinking.
He did not like doing things the way others recommended, particularly his coach Bill Bowerman.
Bowerman co-founded Nike with Phil Knight.
Bowerman was the 1972 Team USA Olympic Track & Field team head coach.
Bowerman was Pre’s coach.
Bowerman tried to break Pre from being a front runner.
Pre may have won the Olympic 5000 gold if he ran his own race. We will never know because Pre took Coach Bowerman’s advice and stayed with the pack.
The pack boxed Pre in and he was unable to break free.
Pre is not at his best when boxed in.
None of us are.
