Whether its making a social venture work, or a regular business -- one is constantly striving for sustainability and balance. I am calling this 'life' as we all anyway spend most of our living time doing this.
I just found an analogy from Dr Yash Pal's book - Random Curiosity (a collection of questions from children and youth about life and observations of phenomena and simple but scientific researched answers from Prof Yash Pal). Prof Mashelkar (ex-CSIR Head and Scientist) in his tribute shares how Prof YashPal in a response to question - why are we able to balance a moving bicycle as compared to one that is stationary - provides not only a simple physics explanation but also a philosophical understanding relating the riding of bike to life.
The key point to note here is that a person has to continue to turn the pedal and keep the bike moving for it to stay stable/balanced versus trying to balance a stationary bike.
The fact that we need to pedal and move to keep the balance points to three key aspects of achieving sustainability in life:
1) Life is dynamic - balance comes with active movement,
2) We need to have a rhythm and regular action on the right set of activities
3) We need to focus on a distance away from the immediate and let the handle be held loosely only to be firmed up during bumps and turns.

sir it is nice to find you back at blogs: can claim that these blogs are able to drive one's opinion toward vision
