I really liked analyzing the cases that were provided for our weekly discussion. The main theme of this week was managing work/life balance. Both of the cases are family-related and I believe that it happens very often to business owners when they should choose between the business and family. Family is very important to me, and if I choose my career, then I most likely won't even have a family. I have personally experienced having one of my parents choose a career over their family which they ended up losing. I would never want my children to go through it, it is very traumatizing to go through when your parents do not have enough time to give you. In both cases, I would prioritize my family. It is so important to have a work-life balance, but it can be challenging to acquire those skills. In the first case, I would reach out to the client and explain the situation, try to reschedule, or try to solve the issue over the phone. In the second case, I would just try my best to save my family, and if he does want to be a football coach, he could try another high school that would be close to where his family lives so he would not spend too much time on traveling which causes his divorce. That is to say, there are two sides to every equation. Money and quality of life are two factors that come into play. What are you spending, on the other hand? What do you do with your free time? So, what happens next? Many individuals believe that increasing the revenue side of the equation indefinitely offers you peace and happiness on the other end. On the contrary. Because as you build exponentially, you take on a lot of commitments, which means the other side of the equation doesn't work out the way you expected. As a result, it's about keeping both purposes in mind while also comprehending the costs. Because your education will be the most essential thing to you at some time in your life. And, at some point in your life, making money may become the most important thing to you because you need to buy the house you've always wanted in order to support your family. That's a dynamic balance. And I believe that the best approach to maintain a balanced lifestyle is to pay attention to what matters most, to ask yourself tough questions so that you can be careful with your choices, and to ensure that both ends of the equation are met.
