I was asked the question:How, being successful, to remain in harmony with yourself, family and the world, because successful people are busy from morning to night?”
Since the question itself is an example of complete confusion, I will answer in order.
So, a successful person is one who sets his goals and achieves them. In addition, such a person is recognized as successful and surrounding people. After all, you can successfully climb the garbage heaps, but the environment is unlikely to recognize this as a success. At the same time, it is absolutely not obvious to consider that a person is successful if he runs around somewhere with a tense face from morning to evening, he does not have a minute of free time, if he has health problems and problems with his wife, and his child is almost won’t know. This is a person poorly organized in time, stupid. I would not call such a person successful.
Those people whom I consider successful, even exceptionally successful (I also consider myself very successful people) always have the opportunity to set aside time for themselves to relax or do what they love. For such people, the family is far from being in the background — rather, in one of the first places.
You need to be able to organize your life, and in our time it is not difficult to do this. The fact that a successful person is in demand (when everyone wants him) is, of course, great. But what he agrees to and what not is already a personal choice. Will he forget about his goals and objectives? If so, then, I repeat, this is a stupid person, not a successful one.
A simple example: you sit down at a table laden with dishes — here you have the first, and the second, and ten thirds. Does this mean that you are now a glutton, and will soon be fat and clumsy? The answer is obvious. It’s good that the table is rich, but how much you eat without compromising your health and well-being, you, as a smart person, decide for yourself.
A person who is well organized in life knows that in order to be successful for a long time, it is necessary to organize your rest. If this is not done, then in a few years the eyes will become dull and success will go somewhere in the past. You need to take care of yourself. If a person takes care of his rest and joys, then he will definitely find an opportunity to successfully do business. Now, in order to fully run a business, it is absolutely not necessary to be in the office — 20 years have passed since it ceased to be a prerequisite. Olga Paratnova successfully led Sinton via Skype for almost 3 years while in Egypt. And everything was great! I have many executive friends, successful businessmen who have a wonderful time with their families, children, read books, think about business prospects, write plans, projects, contact colleagues via Skype when necessary … And everything works!
Now about «harmony with yourself.» Donald Trump wrote: “For a billionaire, doing business is the only thing that makes him delight!” This is not violence. It is harmonious for him to do his business and not to do it harmoniously. There are people who don’t like to work. They say: “How can I live in harmony with myself if I have to work?” I answer: «It’s your problem that you don’t like your job.» Work is part of a harmonious life. If you love your work, you will be happy working, you will be in harmony with yourself. That’s how happy a successful person is doing his job ..
