In the words of Mr. Miyagi: Better learn balance. Balance is key

As moms, we think about work life, home life, family, marriage, friendships... need I say more?

No such thing as work-life balance, every family is different- Gary Vee

When we are strong in your family or work and then the other part is weak, you're not balanced

Myth is defined in Merriam Webster's dictionary as a traditional story of ostensibly historical events that serves to unfold part of the world view of a people or explain a practice, belief, or natural phenomenon. I googled work-life balance and I stuck with this compilation of work-life balance quotes I found on realwealth.com by Jessica Willens.

Here are some quotes that I'd share with you:

1. Either you run the day, or the day runs you- Jim Rohn

2. Balance is not better time management, but better boundary management. Balance means making choices and enjoying those Choices- Betsy Jacobson

3. Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life - Dolly Parton

4. When in doubt, choose the kids. There will be plenty of time later to choose work - Anna Quindlen

5. Time is really the only capital that any human being has, and the only thing he can't afford to lose - Thomas Edison

6. Don't forget to breathe- Mr. Miyagi.

7. Boundaries help create mutual balance instead of split balance - the book Boundaries by Dr's. Henry Cloud and John Townshend.

Proverbs 31.org has an article about boundaries

We can choose to wait and see how things fall in place because we do not want to envy others or keep up with the Jones’ but see Ecclesiastes 4:5-6 read it here

We can say we don’t want to work too hard because we are trying to achieve balance but see Proverbs 6:10:

A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest….

Luke 10: 38-42:

The story is about two sisters, Mary and Martha

When Jesus came to visit them: Mary sat down to listen to Jesus but Martha got busy serving Jesus and the guests. Martha asked Jesus to tell Mary to help her but Jesus reminded her Mary chose the right thing and it would not be taken from her.

So we choose; we redefine our boundaries and that with prayers we can achieve or accomplish this myth called work-life balance!
