knowing what to do

How do we balance our activities when at the back of our minds we know that some things can be counter-intuitively unproductive?

We turn to unending top lists in the internet, researches on psychology, pieces of advice from self-help coaches and eventually just end up with "What do I really want to do?"

Yet we still end up lost and confused.

Maybe it's because we haven't really asked the One who knows everything and who knows what's best for us. 

balance in life

Living a life of excellence is doing the best one can do in everything, giving more than one can give, and pursuing what can give greater glory to God.
This is how we are called to be living testimonies of His goodness.

"It is not so much as striking a balance in our lives. It is more of excelling in as much areas of our lives as possible," said a mentor of mine.
