"Good as Balanced"
A statement I often say, heard thousands of times by my coworkers.
If I have to use a teller drawer, I have to be sure the money balances at the end of the day.
When the drawer is out of balance during the middle of the day, you can guarantee that I will announce that I am "good as balanced."
So what does that really mean? It means that things are not working out at the moment, I need to step away to do some other task, while I regroup and devise a new plan to accomplish the best end result. I know that eventually my teller drawer will be in balance, it sometimes just takes a few tries.
My very dear friend Darlene recently sent me a message saying she was good as balanced. After all these years of repeating my coin phrase, I first smiled and then I saw it in a new light.
Sometimes in life things just don't work out quite right. So what needs to be done?
A) Step away
B) Regroup
C) Devise a new plan
The last several years, without realizing it, this is exactly what I have been doing. In my search of getting our lives back on track, I have had to use the trial and error method. Some things work, but many things do not.
But now I know that I need to keep trying,
because for now my life is....
Good as Balanced!
