Serious Entrepreneur, is your life balanced or a balancing act? In business today, it seems we are under greater pressure than ever before. In our quest to be successful, we're working harder and longer just to stay in the race.
And when you keep on running marathons, you forget how it is to walk, or maybe jog a bit to relax.
As internet marketers, we guide and motivate our team members, talk to prospective clients, reply to endless emails and text messages, keep up to date with all the new marketing strategies, promote our campaigns, get bombarded with guru launches that promise to make us richer faster and easierand fit in time for our family and ourselves.
How do those, who survive, then survive without a career burnout?
John Alston, who, as a serious entrepreneur, can understand the problems of serious entrepreneurs as much as anyone can ever, says: "For some of us, work is our first love, and for those of us struggling to make our businesses work, there are patient and enduring lovers, spouses and children hanging in there with us. For others there are ex-lovers, ex-spouses and alienated children who can and will testify to what you really value." He wrote this in the Professional Speaker magazine of January.
Every job, and even every passion, comes with its own set of challenges. But internet marketing is a notch above all this in its tension generation ability. Serious entrepreneurs have devised their own ways for coping with the pressures of network marketing, because, it was a novel and untested arena and there was pretty much no training or warning on how to cope with it.
All serious entrepreneurs in the world of internet marketing are there because they see their work almost as a vocation, a calling. It is a call of the soul that they cannot resist. Every new challenge is seen by them as an opportunity to rise higher. They simply get drunk on the pleasure of picking up the gauntlet, surmounting the problem, and thereby going another step higher in the success ladder.
But they know when to shut the computer off.
Serious entrepreneurs are only too conscious about the fact that though their jobs define life itself for them, life is much more than that as well.
They could be equally passionate about adventure sports, passive hobbies, philanthropic activities, or whatever that could define another facet of their life. Serious entrepreneurs may play the roles of a father or a husband with equal relish.
Work, hobbies, family, and social obligations can fit in comfortably into a person's schedule, without each trying to jostle the other out. In fact, the arenas other than work are as much necessary as work itself. Each of these has to be there in the necessary proportions to counterbalance each other and make a man whole.
If you think you have no time, remember the Parkinson's Law "work expands to fill the time available for its completion."
Time has to be parceled off to incorporate into one's schedule, those things which one enjoys. There are so many things in human life, the vey doing of which is its own reward. These cannot be pigeonholed. It is better to pigeonhole some of the work and find time for these.
It was Albert Schweitzer who said, "Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing, you will be successful." And it perhaps holds true for serious entrepreneurs more than to any one else.
