Five questions to consider for a happy weekend.
1. Do you love what you do for work?
2. Does it excite you?
3. Are you energized by solving problems?
4. Does overcoming the next big hurdle get you going?
If you answered yes to the above four questions, then you’re blessed as an entrepreneur. You’ll never want for opportunities.
But here’s the fifth question.
5. Can you turn off your “work brain” when you’re with family?
If your answer is yes, then I stand in awe of you. You are a rare and fine specimen of humanity.
However, what if your answer to question 5 is sometimes or no?
Is your beautiful problem-solving mind getting in the way of being present, body and brain, when it’s time to be with your loved ones?
Then consider this a nudge from a fellow work obsessor.
Don’t let your gift as an entrepreneur also become your silent curse. Because your knife cuts both ways.
So, here’s to the happy weekend I know you’ll have.
