Hello Charlie

Sometimes we forget why we are doing all of this, to enjoy life.

That's a good example when you talk about playing the piano. I hope you still play. Getting a good healthy balance in our lives is s important.

Thanks for sharing Soren. It's good to know I'm not alone! The planning you do is good advice. That also needs some discipline.

Hey Charlie,

I totally agree with you on this. As you probably know, I play piano and I use to play between an hour to two hours a day, every day. It got to the point where I wasn't progressing. By me taking a break, when I got back on I felt rejuvenated and my accuracy gotten better. So taking a break will be helpful in the long run. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Charlie, wow this is a fine post. Thoughts all of us have, I think – I do – and the way I try to deal with this, is by planing all my time – All My Time – I have been using GTD for a long time, so I also remember to have time, to read, to be with friends and family, time on my own ect.
Today I have this “guilt feeling” because I when to help my mother, helping my mother was a good feeling, but when I got home (an hour ago), and looked at my list,,,, only one thing to do, take action, and I know that withing the next 3 hours everything on my list will be “done”

Sometimes the biggest thing to realize when it comes to building the business is that you're building it so you can design your own lifestyle, the way you want, the way you desire.

Don't get so lost in it that it is all you do.

For truly, true monotony is the death of us all.
