The root cause of most problems is imbalance. When things work well, it is usually because they sit in the right proportion. Nature shows this elegantly—day and night, the pull of gravity, the rhythms of a healthy body. Everything holds because the balance holds.
Our personal struggles often come from too much or too little of something. Too much money or too little love. Too much education or too little grounding. Too much liberalisation or too much rigidity. Too much greed at the cost of health and relationships.
The same pattern follows us into business. We run into trouble when we chase too much sales and forget delivery, or spend too much time on strategy and neglect execution.
ERP projects are no different. They wobble when there is too much technology and too little focus on change, process, people and adoption. imbalance creates pain long before failure arrives.
If there is one thing humanity must master, it is the art of balance. And to reclaim balance, we must step out of our self-created shells, look at the bigger picture through the eyes of others, and collaborate with a genuinely open mind. Being balanced is more valuable—and far more sustainable—than the constant push for “more.”
