Do you feel like your business is your whole life? When a new client drops you, do you feel betrayed? or like you lost your friend? I remember those days from my legal business. Part of being successful in your business (finances included) is having a healthy work-life balance. When you are turning down life opportunities because of it, (for no concrete reason) you need to re-evaluate. Introverts I find seem to have this problem more because we have less “social life” we lose perspective. There is no emotion in business.
We talk a lot about work/life balance and we as mom sometimes want to role our eyes because it can seem difficult to impossible. We have so much expected of us today that this seems like a dream. But something as basic as turning your phone and computer off after a time is a good start. Not putting your kids to bed after a day of working just to work some more, and not being afraid of a vacation, because if you let your business take over the business will fail as a result of your burnout and the emotions and depletion you will get as a result of failure could be detrimental to you, your family and the business.
