If I might turn this around, some men don't. What makes them different than those who do? I think the answer is "they are willing to be seen as less than manly."
We can not both live balanced lives and keep the prestige and power we are used to. We, as individuals, must give up our illusions that we are better than others because we manage more people or make more money or get more funding. Instead, we much know we are good enough and choose for ourselves how to distribute our short time on earth.
Men can't have it all: we must give up "man" as our primary identity in order to find our more-satisfying "self".
