Sunday Post #10

Maintaining a healthy balance between work and our personal lives requires ongoing attention and dedication. Think back over the past week, or month, and you'll see that there were probably days where things seemed to have been in perfect harmony, and then there were also days where it felt as if everything was happening a bit chaotically and out of control. We then end up labeling these experiences as either good or bad.

This week's Sunday Post is a quote from Alan Weiss, author of "Getting Started in Consulting". The quote below continues to remind me about my goal of fulfilling my ambitions and dreams, and that the path to the realization of this goal requires balance...and awareness.

"As you become more successful, you'll have the opportunity to transfer some of the intensity, passion, focus, time, and perseverance that you've invested in your business -- and necessarily so, to launch and sustain it successfully -- to your private interests, family, community, and friends. Ironically, that transfer to a greater balance of life and work will actually accelerate your business growth still more."
