Balance

Consider how many of life's lessons involve learning what is the right amount and what is too much.

People want you to be:

• Informative but not too informative;
• Tough but not too tough;
• Sociable but not too sociable;
• Generous but not too generous;
• Polite but not too polite;
• Perceptive but not too perceptive;
• Witty but not too witty;
• Understanding but not too understanding.

The list goes on. Learning the balance is a lifetime endeavor due to the complexity of personal preferences.
