Work. Life. Balance. Really?

Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching
About this episode

Work. Life. Balance. Really?

A long time ago, you found yourself graduating high school and thrust into real life. 

I’m sure you gave lots of thought to your future. Then again, you were young. Twenty years later, things can look very different.

Over the years, I’ve learned something about working for a living:

1) Chasing money, advancement, and being significant will keep you busy. It will also close your eyes to other areas of life you would enjoy.

2) Pursuing passion and mission without considering real life is a recipe for frustration.

Choose career opportunities that allow you to run fast, feel important, make money, and will enable you to serve your passion and mission.
