Balance of life and career...how to get to the top! I was golfing a couple of days ago while visiting with my brother. We were matched with 2 great guys. For those of you who do not golf, if there are 2 of you, often the pro shop places 2 more players. Although you do not know each other, it is a game of focus on the game, and side conversations are held off to the side, yet some fun conversation is held between the 4.
As we passed the 9th hole, the conversation came around to careers and everyone's daily life. When the guys asked about ExecuMate, they were firing questions wanting to know the answers, like ASAP!
I smiled knowing they were just loading their 'tool box' with the right equipment to handle their life jobs. They were starved for information.
Education is a great thing. If we prepare our children with all the 'tools' to handle difficult situations, why are we not do the same for ourselves.
I love this business. I am off to the super hardware store with my spouse!
