When I tell people I have started my own business, I often hear something along the lines of they couldn’t do it, couldn’t commit to working 24/7.
The truth is, one of the reasons I started eOpinion is because working 24/7 is exactly what I didn’t want to do. I also don’t expect my team to do it. We all have families, hobbies, other things that require some of our focus.
There is more to life than work.
No doubt there will be many out there who think this is a rubbish attitude to starting a business but do you know what? I don’t care. Everyone has a different approach.
In my opinion, a happy team with interests away from the office is a productive and diverse team.
Life is all about balance!
My youngest daughter is one tomorrow and it is staggering how quick that year has gone. It’s a timely reminder that there is other stuff going on apart from growing a business.
The weather today is glorious. The first decent day of the year and it is amazing the impact a bit of vitamin D can have.
It’s been a long and productive week and a reward is deserved.
Once this blog is posted I am logging off, going screen-free, enjoying some sunshine and spending the weekend with my family.
Have a fantastic weekend whatever you may be up to.
