Mr. Miyagi say “Go, Find Balance”
Mr. Miyagi say:
“Lesson not just karate only.
Lesson for whole life.
Whole life have a balance.
Everything be better. Understand?”
Of course, that is a quote from the Karate Kid. The quote is true. In my business I see when people get out of balance and it shows in every area of their life. It shows in their business, personal life, and even in filing their tax returns. I have seen many clients who had stopped filing tax returns. Why? They went to another CPA? No. They show up later, sometimes years later to file their returns. What happened?
Things got out of balance and serious problems resulted in every area of their lives. For example, a client who neglects his business typically sees a loss in profits and often loses the business and or files for bankruptcy. That in turn puts pressure on their personal life and often results in depression. The same happens when other areas are neglected. So the point is pay attention to all areas of your life and keep them in balance. Do not neglect your family, health, creativity, enjoying life, etc. just to succeed in business. Every area of life need to be taken care of.
