It made me think about all these business owners whose first
priority is money. This weekend I watched “Click” with Adam Sandler and how he basically fast forwards his life to become a partner with the company he works for and misses out on the relationships with his family. I realized how much we miss out in life by running the rat race and chasing after money, status, and prestige. When we’re too focused on the money, we tend to forget about the customers and our relationships with them. There needs to be a good balance between both.
So, what’s your priority? What do you value?
Just stay balanced and focused on your goals in life. I always put my family before my job, however I do need my income to support my family. I do sometimes work on my days off for extra money, but if my kids are sick or they need my attention, work comes second. I think you can be a professionally successful and still have a great family, actually my family helps me work, great for motivation.
