Trying To Be Less Type A

Balance to me means to try and be less Type A
To stop obsessing over things I cannot change
Balance to me means not to play all weekend.
I am so Type A during the week that I feel I deserve it.
Balance is something I do not do well.
I am obsessive and compulsive, so balance would be fantastic.
But it is something I have to try too hard to do.
I fail at it miserably, being Type A.

Ilene Bauer October 2, 2022 at 1:29 PM As a fellow Type A, I can totally relate, Caren! Caren Krutsinger October 2, 2022 at 2:24 PM I wish I were laid back, I truly do!

L Milton Hankins October 1, 2022 at 7:43 PM Yep, but, believe it or not, I am also an introvert. Most people think I'm a rampant extrovert, but I draw my inner strength from my time alone, and I prefer to be alone. I can put on the other face, but I'm always seeking escape from the crowd or the party and thinking about what I will do when I get home. Caren Krutsinger October 2, 2022 at 2:24 PM I love my alone time; it make me rest.

I Am Anaya October 1, 2022 at 6:16 PM Better than type Incel (Involuntary celibate). I have nothing against type A's many become ambitious when in need of survival. As age progresses? They say there is something behind ambition, a need for something. What type of balance is the question. Very interesting Caren. ~Anaya Caren Krutsinger October 2, 2022 at 2:24 PM Thank you Anaya
