Lessins Lessons for Life Balance

1. We are constantly searching for balance in all aspects of our busy lives. Our lives encompass much more than just work.

2. Finding balance in live requires making and accepting changes. Accept change with a positive welcoming attitude.

3. To best achieve balance in your life, you need to take it one step at a time. Start with baby steps!

4. Balance is different for each and every one of us. Celebrate your uniqueness!

5. Learning to say “no” is key to living a balanced life. Remember that “no” is the opposite of “on”. You do not always have to be “on”.

6. Your life balance will change over time as your life changes. Look at your life as the lifetime of opportunities that it truly is.

7. Balance may need to be scheduled into your life just like a business meeting. Plans may need to be changed or rescheduled so just make new plans.

8. Give up the myth of perfect balance. Aim for reasonable balance for the long haul.

9. Do something that brings you balance every day. You have to nurture yourself first before you can truly nurture others.

10. Be sure to have some fun! You work hard and deserve the very best that your life has to offer.

Re: Sources of Cash Re: Sources of Cash - Thanks for the help. The items will be recorded in the Balance Sheet. But why does the Balance Sheet always balances. Is there a specific reason
The Second Life Platform The Second Life Platform - Greetings! I'm not sure how many of you have heard of or are sensitive to Second Life and its related entities. However, Second Life is a fantastic platform to mimmick real life business operations in a real currency based economy. There are plenty of successful stories for creative individuals, but I'd highly suggest doing your research and appreciating Second Life for what it is, and what it isn't.

Re: Charge what you're worth Re: Charge what you're worth - [quote="Tami Szabo":292ze3jd]People will pay you what you ask. Very few will ever up the price. You are the one who decided what you are worth. The key is that we believe our services are worth the price we are asking.[/quote:292ze3jd] Hi Tami, You're absolutely right. In "Think and Grow Rich", Jessie B. Rittenhouse says "For Life is a just employer, He gives you what you ask, But once you have set the wages, Why, you must bear the task. I worked for a menial's hire Only to learn, dismayed , That any wage I had asked of Life, Life would have willingly paid" (Napoleon Hill 35). I think the same can be said when setting prices on eBay or Craigslist, especially when people are trying to haggle you.
Re: Sources of Cash Re: Sources of Cash - Thank you for guidance and direction. Is there a simpler way of understanding the Balance Sheet and all the components that are to be recorded.
