The Toll of Neglect: The Hidden Costs of Prioritizing Work Over Well-Being

Many of us prioritize work over other aspects of our lives. Understanding costs are skyrocketing and the bills must be paid, in our continual quest for a better life, we push ourselves ever closer to the risk of burnout and health issues, both mentally and physically. We are brilliant beings and while many of us achieve the success we seek, the long-term costs of neglecting personal well-being and the deeper connection we desire - can be significant, potentially leading to costly health problems and strained family dynamics.?

Neglecting ourselves spiritually can have a most devastating effect, as we neglect to understand our own power, and lack the peace and resilience for consistent happiness. This imbalance can prevent us from experiencing the fullness of life, the richness of our emotions and our divine purpose. Ultimately, we may find ourselves in times of overwhelm as we attempt to think our way to solutions.

About Michael Vukelic

It all began in a small trailer park in Texas. And from those humble beginnings, I set out on what would be an amazing adventure. I had great parents, and a simple life. I always knew I was loved, but at times that love was confusing, as my Dad was 34 years in the Military, and our home life was very disciplined.

As a family, we struggled financially, and I learned early to be grateful for everything. From my perspective now, what we lacked more than money, was joy and love, and through-out most of my younger years – I sought out joy and love in any way I could get it. Watching my Father and Mother work hard each day, my sister and I learned this was the way to attain our desires. We all had our work to do and everyone was expected to chip in and do their part. I accomplished my projects and chores with perfection to earn the approval and favor of my parents. I was perceptive and wise enough to know how to stay out of trouble.

Being inquisitive and a curious thinker, growing up, I felt different from a lot of the other kids. I felt much more in tune with the world, intuitive, and intelligent, and although quieter than most, I felt some profound connection stirring in me. As I grew into my teens, I found myself becoming really curious about life, our purpose here, religious aspects, and I became highly intrigued about how this world works and the role we play in it. Somewhere in the eighties, I stumbled on several pieces of information, including books from Brian Weiss and Wayne Dyer that awakened my mind to a whole new world.

Although I was terrified to speak up and grew up with doubts about my abilities, I now understand that it has been a perfect journey to empower myself, develop a profound love of myself, and make important life decisions. This has led me to a career as a Section Chief in the Military, a highly sought-after career with a major airline, a real estate broker/investor, and finally, following the quiet yet persistent intuitive voice inside, I found freedom, fulfillment, and healing by following my soul’s desire – to awaken that absolute joy and love that had always been missing from my life.

My path has afforded much success and abundance throughout my journey, but I developed profound and tremendous joy, health, fulfillment, and love – to heal my disease – and my struggles – by learning to follow my heart and soul! My amazing life has given me much wisdom and many gifts for which I am more grateful than sometimes I believe is possible. I have overcome insurmountable challenges, and I now enjoy a beautiful, loving relationship, flowing creative, fun work, and an adventure of great proportion by letting go of who I thought I was raised to be and choosing to follow and trust in all of the desires of my heart and soul.

This connection, explored in my Divine Intelligence Retreat, gave me peace, joy and success that has changed my life FOREVER!
