What is your idea of spending a balanced time on 7cups? Share your idea of how a good day looks like on 7cups, for you.


My idea of a balanced time on 7 cups is when I act as per the priorities I have. A good day for me on 7cups is when I spend a productive time on cups in a way it does not affect by offsite life productivity



What challenges did you face in trying to strike that balance?

The main challenge that I faced to strike the balance is to set priority offsite and on cups, when I was new on cups I signed up for each and every role I found about and end up being overwhelmed.


How did you try to deal with those challenges?

Fortunately, I had great people who guided me throughout the entire process and I by the time reduced my roles and was able to set the priorities about what I needed to do on cups. But I am still working toward setting and implementing priorities.



What are the benefits of improving your balance for the time you spend on cups?

Balance is needed as it gives structure and helps us to enjoy the volunteering we do here, otherwise, we will not be able to enjoy it at all, with lots of guilt.






What message would you like to give to the cupsers who have come to be negatively attached to cups, in one of the many ways?

Well, I know how it feels to be at your place and I know how hard it is to maintain a proper balance, something that I found useful is to invest in things as per priority and to take the smallest steps toward the right direction. It is hard to fight with addiction, I know that but you got what it takes to fight it, take small steps, develop healthy habits like being more physically active, eating good food, and doing what needs to be done. You got what it takes to fight addiction<3

@Bubblegumwings1234 - Hi Wings! Your responses were really well-thought-out and insightful. You explained very well the importance of stepping back and understanding your priorities so that you don’t get overwhelmed. That is such a key skill needed in any role you take in life, including 7 Cups roles. Thank you very much for participating in this interview with all your amazing suggestions and insight! ❤️
