This episode is by request from my friend Fallon, who asks, "How do you find the balance between the art consuming you and the other important things/people in your life?  Do you let it overtake you for the month(s) before, and then have a break after?  Are you able to find breaks in between?  If so, how??"

What you'll hear:

  • shitty sound quality because I don't have my microphone here in Ireland (blame the snake).  
  • One week down at the IADF, one week to go 2:00
  • Getting into the meat of Fallon's question of how to find balance during crunch time by defining what balance is and understanding that it's a dynamic state, not a static one 4:00
  • Why my initial thought of "yeah let it consume you!" is very biased because of the failsafe's I have built into my life 6:45
  • One approach to finding the elusive, dynamic balance during crunch time:  Find your 5 non-negotiables and protect them with your whole chest 9:00
    • My five, as a starter pack:  sleep, food, water, down time, solitude
  • Episode 141:  "Rest" is not enough 16:30


Don't go back to sleep.
