A gentleman at the local fitness center once said, “anything worth doing is worth overdoing.”

The common application of this idea is a “workaholic.” We easily get wrapped up and consumed in various areas of what we do.

How do we prevent falling into this trap of obsessiveness and overdoing it?

We need balance. Balancing family, work, and other activities is challenging. If not careful, we become imbalanced and overdo one above the other.

We need to evaluate priorities. We need to live according to the proper priorities of God, family, work.

While there are other ideas to consider, these steps will help us prevent overdoing as leaders.
