You know, the only thing stopping you get work/life balance in your life is YOU!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sorry. #harshtruth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The moment you stop blaming everything that is out of your control and start taking control of what IS in your control, that is where the magic happens.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And I know this from personal experience because I lived that life for years and years. I was too busy for, everything. I missed out on stuff. I wasn't present in any moment, for anyone, including myself. I'll never get that time back either.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
How did I get myself out of that and into a situation where I have an amazing work/life balance?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I had to change some stuff. Some big, terrifying, really hard changes. I had to stop being the victim and letting my businesses control my life. For me, this meant selling my reliably earning, well known, award winning business that I knew everything about inside out, and just focusing on the newer, early stages, consulting business that I just wasn't confident with at the time.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For you, it will mean something else entirely. But there is always a solution to you feeling like you never have time for anything.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Unless you are a 24 hour emergency vet, there are very little client emergencies that can't wait 24 hours for a reply, or until Monday, or whatever. And if you are in that situation of clients messaging you 3 hours later saying 'why haven't you replied yet' the problem is you need to find more reasonable clients, or finding a better way to get information to people to reduce urgent queries.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't spend years missing out on family, horses, and friends and feeling trapped.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your business can work and you can still have a life. You just got to be smart about it!
