The Big Picture

The pressure to succeed and meet daily demands intercepts the view of the big picture. What do they mean by the big picture? It means, if life ended today, what would be the net value of life. What would would be the overall assets (ie. health, financial, relationships, family, etc.) compared to the overall debts (relationships lost, financial loss, opportunity lost, dreams lost, health lost, etc.). The small picture view focuses on one or two areas of life to gauge the value of life. Sacrificing health for the gain of short term assets is very common. Sure, pills can help keep lab values and health numbers to appear fine, but over time sacrificing sleep, a healthy diet, exercise, stress management, and good relationships will ultimately impact the net value of life.
