Why does a Good Life have to be Well-Balanced?
We work less, but we have more to do. We have more free time, but we sleep less. While we complain about stress we plan overfilled days. But is restlessness really a problem? Why do we complain about our busy lives and at the same time keep on actively participating in it? And since when does a good life have to be well-balanced? Ignaas Devisch will explain that what really matters is to find a way of dealing with our insatiable but also very positive appetite for self-realization - more than to achieve peace and balance.
