"Excerpted from The Three Marriages: Reimagining Work, Self and Relationship courtesy of Riverhead Books, a division of Penguin Group (USA).
In his latest book, The Three Marriages: Reimagining Work, Self and Relationship (Riverhead Books, 2009), poet and business consultant David Whyte proposes that our current understanding of work-life balance is too simplistic. 'People find it hard to balance work with family, family with self, because it might not be a question of balance. Some other dynamic is in play, something to do with a very human attempt at happiness that does not quantify different parts of life and then set them against one another.'
In the following excerpt, Whyte suggests a more integrated understanding of our interdependent marriages with others, with our work, and with ourselves."
