If the simple rewards of
fun and freedom have long since disappeared, you
could be jeopardizing your business. The success
of your business depends on you -- your health,
your resiliency, your creativity.
To stay in top form you need to
play as hard as you work. Having fun and
reducing stress go hand-in-hand. Do both and
you'll recapture the thrill of being an
entrepreneur.
"The first step to having fun
is admitting that fun is missing," counsels
Deborah Brown, a personal coach and life
consultant who works with professionals,
entrepreneurs and small-business owners. "Once
you know it's gone, you can take steps to put it
back in. In the beginning, you may have to put
fun into your calendar until you're used to
having it in your life again."
