Trying to Find Balance

All my life I have struggled with this idea of creating balance in my life. Many of my friends say that I work too hard, I'm a little too intense and that I tend to take on too much. Basically, what they are saying is that my life is out of balance. Many times I feel like its out of balance as well but what does balance look like for me? Concepts such as harmony, symmetry, peace... come to mind but harmony between what? Is there a fight? If so, a fight over what? Generally in society people tend to fight over limited resources but what is the limited resource here that the various parts of me are fighting over? Is balance as simple as being at peace with where you are or is that just a new age cop out?
