How Do I Do a Challenge and Still Have Time to Enjoy My Life?

I am a firm believer that we need to focus on what we want, we need to be clear on what it is we want to achieve and then we need to write it down or have someone help us make a list of things that we need to do and start doing. Before you begin your " challenge" have a clear idea of what it is that you want.

I am a firm believer that we need to focus on what we want, we need to be clear on what it is we want to achieve and then we need to write it down or have someone help us make a list of things that we need to do and start doing. Before you begin your " challenge" have a clear idea of what it is that you want.

If you have carved out a new job and you are having trouble making up your mind on what you would like to be doing it may Work in your Business Freedom choices. This will make your life all that you want to be.

If you are having trouble with your family or really if your family is not on board with your new line of business you may have a crossed fingers issue is your husband/wife are also going to be your best asset for plugging a life in to your business. If you are not sure you are not putting energy in to you and your family when it comes to your life this could be happening. You may be putting your energy in to your business and have had to "put it out there" so that people know you exist but your family will not have the commitment to you or the same commitment. You may realize that you just want to run your business as a hobby.

If you are working at finding a way to have more time and have better long term outlook for your life and for your business or to have more happiness something you think about that you would like to have working in your life but not sure how to make it happen.

Perhaps you are not ready to step outside your business or you really could not figure out how to drive your business at it's best.

If this is the case I do not recommend you go forward with your plan so as to ensure you are putting your ideal effort into it. However you do need to create your business plan even if you do not know what has to happen in order for you to have a business that runs just like a home. And the best place to start is by deciding what you would like to have in life if you are to do business on your terms and in your world.

I hope by reading this that you have taken notes and are really clear on where you are with your life. If you are not clear on some of this do not be alarmed it is ok here is a quick exercise that will help you clarify what is important to you in your life:

Get a piece of paper and write a list of things that you would like to have in your life if you could. For instance if you could have your own home, a luxury car, a gold watch etc. write every single thing you could possibly want in your life and what you would want in your life 10 years from now if you could have anything you just want it.

Now post it somewhere that you will see it often so that you do not set priorities in your life that would change it. You will find it difficult to ever go back to your lists when you do what your top on your list is but you will be left feeling homesick and confused when those things that you want are not there ideally. If you are Change guide your lists carefully. This will enable you to have goals in the future (and not just the now) that you will be able to work towards.

A real Business Freedom is when you are not so tied up with your business and you are enjoying life as well as the direction you want it to take.

Work In a business or for yourself and just wait to enjoy that life. Work in a business that gives you more freedom.

Work in a business that is run by you so that you are able to run your own schedule.

Work in a business that will make your life run smoothly and you feel that you are in control of your life.

Work in a business that gives you more time than you ever thought you would have.
