What are you doing with your life?

Change, leadership Add comments

Over the last few days, a new theme has emerged during my discussions with clients. What motivates them?

Some are facing choices between two or more potentially lucrative opportunities, some are having a tough time, some are sitting back and questioning what it is that inspires them to keep running their own business.

There are easier ways to earn a living than by running your own business. But are they as satisfying?

The answer is very personal and, in my experience, changes over time. A whole host of factors continually change and influence the kind of people we are.

In my work, I try to understand what it is that motivates a business leader. From this, I try to ensure that business goals link into personal goals.

Running a business is not for everyone, the stress alone can ruin your personal life… But the rewards for those who are willing and able to put the time and effort in can be great.

Even if you are not running a business, what you do for work is a key part of you.

Life is like a three legged stool. Each leg represents work, home and friends. If they are not balanced, you will end up slipping off the stool.

Thinking you have a good balance is not the same as knowing you have a good balance. If they are not in balance, what are you going to do about it?
