Ep.144 - Intentional Steps To Realize Your Marriage and Business Dreams
Intentional is a keyword that will help you create greater work-life balance and realize your dreams in marriage and business. Most couples we talk to have the mentality that if you just work hard enough your life will fall into place. There’s some truth to that but if you don’t have a clear direction of what you’re trying to accomplish how will you know when you’ve reached your destination?
Even for our own lives, we’ve found that the more specific we make our goals, the more likely we achieve them.
For example, if part of the vision in your marriage is to be able to take off whenever you want to wherever you want, how does your business need to be structured in order to accomplish that? In short, you’ll have to have key people in place so that the business can run itself and still grow.
That may seem like a long way off from now but if you start taking intentional steps toward that goal, you’ll start to realize greater freedom in the present. Take a listen to how we walked through a series of steps to help one our clients start growing their business for greater freedom.
