Do you take time to play every week...

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with WHISPERING PINES REALTY 20398180

WE are in a fast and furious profession and many times we get so wrapped up in our business that our family suffers.

I know, I have done this many times.

It is just now in my older age, that I know how much I missed out on because I HAD to work so much.

But, I have learned that you don't have to take full days.  It isn't the amount of time...It is the quality of time.

This is so important to our young.

Think about this and see if you are giving the most important ones in our lives enough QUALITY time.

I know I work more than I should. Although I'm working at trying to slow things down.

It's very easy in this business to put time for ourselves on the back burner but I agree completely it is very important to schedule some play time.

I absolutely do make time to play each week.  I know of no individual, who on their death bed, said, "I wish I'd worked more."

You hit the nail on the head here. We need to stay connected to the things that last and really mean something in life.

Well said, William.  Keeping what's most important in life in prospective is crucial for a happy, healthy life.

I thought of this before and told myself that I wasn't going to be in my deathbed regretting not spending time with my love ones. I make a priority to spend time with them now.

Good morning William,

To take time off for a work a holic can be devastating and thankfully the kids with their activites gave me some hours away from the grindstone and Sunday morning golf to relieve some pent up energy with the group.

Make yourself a great day.
