Am I ok? - about overreacting to poorly written emails

I am on the run, catching flight number three of a week made of four. Just before boarding the red light of my blackberry starts blinking. I open the inbox, read the last email and feel the rage slowly rising. Luckily i am urged by the stewardess to switch off the mobile phone. I start to nervously imagine replies of all sorts when a quick thought crosses my mind:

When was the last time I asked myself this question? I see my belly (how could it grow so fast?) and I know that

"it must have been too many muffins ago when I last asked myself if I was OK."

Here is when the analyst side of me takes over and suggests an excercise that I want to share with you. The rest of the flight is dedicated to counting hours and assigning them to four categories: Mind, Soul, Heart and Body.

• Working, watching TV, browsing on the web are assigned to the MIND category.

• Cooking, Reading fiction, Photography and Walking is assigned to SOUL category.

• Time with family and friends is assigned to the HEART category.

• Swimming, running and yoga are assigned to the BODY category.

With a day made of 12 hours, my result is:

• 76 % mind

• 17 % heart

• 4 % soul

• 1 % body

WOW! I am shocked and relieved at the same time. The problem is not a badly written email, but a badly balanced life!
