There’s an ongoing battle that most entrepreneurs and high-flying business professionals wage within themselves. And that’s how to balance their time between their personal and professional lives.

When you’re building your own business or passionately pursuing the career of your dreams it’s all too easy to throw yourself into it all hours of the day and night, seven days a week. You become married to your work, often to the detriment of your home life—your relationships with your significant other, your family and your friends.

Let’s face it. While you obviously love your family the truth of the matter is that you also really love your work. But don’t forget the old adage that nobody goes to their grave saying, “I wish I’d spent more time at the office.”

Later in life most executives look back ruefully on the times they missed a wedding anniversary or a special event at their child’s school because they were traveling on business or just “couldn’t get away” from a meeting or conference. Yes, you can convince yourself that you’re putting in all of those extra hours to support your family, but don’t forget that whatever sacrifices you make, your family makes also.

So what can you do to try and strike the right balance between business demands and family?

I'm currently going through that phase now, and I have to say it is hard. My family members don't understand what I am trying to do with my passion, and girlfriends always complain that I am selfish or live a weird lifestyle, so I have chosen to remain on my own for now. When I reach a certain level of achievement with my goals, I will take some time out for family and a decent relationship.

Thank you for that comment kay, we all face that mountain when people don't believe in what we believe and it's because they can't see what we can see about the future.

My advice, don't stop keep working on your self and keep moving towards your dreams very day. One day they will see and rejoice with you. Thanks
