STEP 6: BALANCING PERSONAL AND BUSINESS

As an International Inspirational Speaker and businessman, Entrepreneurs often ask me how
they can find a balance between their businesses and their personal lives.

Honestly, there is no perfect balance, but one can work at creating harmony.

We can decide WHO we want to be, every single day. Who we ARE is a function of WHAT we do.
So whether we are consciously trying or not, we are always shaping our future self.

Here are four simple ways you can implement immediately to achieve a more harmonious work-
life balance:

1. Define what balance looks like for you

First, figure out what your perfect, harmonious day would look like.

2. Be away from work when you’re away from work

It’s one of the hardest things for entrepreneurs to do, but it’s so critical.

When it’s time to stop working, shut down your computer, close the office door, and step away —
both physically and mentally. This means not compulsively checking your email on your phone!
Make the decision to be present in the moment and enjoy your life. Discipline is the most
important factor.

3. Refrain from saying “I’m too busy.”

Repeatedly saying “I’m too busy” can be a stumbling block in creating balance in your life. You will
find yourself realizing the importance of other activities outside of work. Making time for family
and friends creates perspective in life. Time spent with family and friends is an opportunity to
create meaningful memories.
