Balance. Know where you want to go with this and acheive your balance. What do I mean? It's no good having "The Body" when the rest of your life is falling apart. I'm talking about an all of life picture.
If your aim is to be a world champion bodybuilder, perhaps a Mr. ........... well your bodybuilding is going to have to consume a greater part of your waking hours. It is also going to consume a greater part of your financial means. Until you are very successful, you will only have time for a part-time job at best yet the cost of your special foods and supplements will be enormous. See what I mean.
On the other hand, much like me, you may just desire to have some "more than normal" strength, not that keen on a puny body, like to look a little better in a tee shirt, and just plain like working out with your weights. Not so much time is needed - perhaps only every second day. You won't need all those supplements with strange names. Also your diet does not need to be so strict (lucky for me on that one!).
Life is a balance.
It all just depends on where you see yourself heading and what you want to do with it. Whatever you choose for you is right. There will be no wrong choice. If it's what you really desire, then that's it. Just remember to always add some balance in there. Life is not all hard work. Never forget the rest and play bit too. Have fun with it.

"Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance." - Brian Tracy
