Staying Centered on The Work/Life Balance Beam

Written by James Sanders

I don’t know about you, but work-life balance can get off kilter at times, actually more than at times, a lot of the time.  As you get older, priorities change and so does your ability to stay centered.  However, it does not have to be that way. 

When you run your own business or make your own hours, I have learned that it is critical that I make a schedule and set boundaries.  However, that very statement alone, while easily said, is not so easy to execute when you are constantly looking to keep your book of business filled.  Below are some good articles/links with tips on achieving the holy grail of “work-life” balance.

I will leave you with this quote from Malcolm Forbes –
