What Comes First: the "Biz," the "E" or the "Life"?

What Comes First, the "Biz," the "E" or the "Life"?

By Larry L. Nichols

So many people seem to be struggling these "daze" with maintaining a personally satisfying balance between finding the "PRIORITIES" of what comes first during our short little visit on Planet Earth.

I think that when most people really stop to think it all through, their priorities really aren't nearly as confused as they sometimes appear to be in the while desperately working their way through the middle of the overly hectic, always rushing, time-constrained schedules that we all seem to be suffering through these days.

So let's stop and take a break, grab out breath and reevaluate what's really important to us.

"Biz" (Business) is important because it's both:

(A) how we personally choose to express ourselves to the rest of the world and

(B) how we make the money to fund or pay for our vast collection of various plans, dreams, needs, desires and hopes.So "Biz" definitely needs a great deal of time, energy, effort, thought, planning, creating and lets not ever let ourselves forget, dedicated application and committed execution of said plans and strategies.

But ... when it really comes down to it, if you had to choose between "Biz" and your very existence, your soul, your health, your sanity, your true inner beliefs or even something as occasionally intangible as "true love," would "Biz" actually, really, truly come out on top of all of these other vitally significant and vastly important things?

Only "YOU" can answer that question for yourself, but please think, pray, meditate and cogitate very "deep, long and hard" before quickly jumping to any hard-set conclusions that you might live to regret later. Take your time and really open your mind, heart and soul to working this all completely through deep down inside of yourself.

Moving on.

"E" (your online connection to the world through the internet, www. (wild wacky web) email, websites, blogs, forums and other public portals, etc.) is also very important, especially today.

These days, not having a continual and consistent, competent and comfortable "Web Presence" is as disastrously dangerous to your "outreach efforts" as it was not to have a telephone back in the 20th Century.

These days, if you don't have well designed, continually updated, "E-Presence" that is clear, complete, concise, comfortable and compelling, face it, your chances of succeeding as a business, organization, or public entity are bleak to dead zero.

Plus, you need to be sure keep of with all of the latest, "state of the art," updated "reality" of your chosen field of endeavor and keep in touch with your clients, partners, associates, affiliates, friends, family members and special others. That's pretty important stuff, right?

But ... what about when it comes down to the necessary efforts needed to making sure that your services or products are carefully maintained with 100% integrity, pertinence and relevancy to an ever changing, twisting and turning world, where does the internet or as we like to call it: "E" come in on your list of top priorities.

What about making sure you get enough sleep, exercise, nutritious meals, vitamins, minerals & herbs, fun and relaxing time away from the computer and work to ensure that you stay sharp, healthy, sane and on top of your game.

Are you forgetting about, "LIVE HUMAN INTERACTION," person to person physical contact, and the many variation and definitions of the word LOVE?

Oh yeah, ... and what about your inner life, self improvement, your spiritual path, etc? Hmmmmmm.

Again, only "YOU" can answer those questions for yourself. Choose Well, ... your happiness depends on it!

Moving further along.

"Life" ... wow, that's kind of important, right? I mean, really, without LIFE, ... the whole business and intenet thingy all seem sort of pointless and don't actually carry much weight at all, when you really stop to deeply think about it.

Well Done!

You have now successfully snatched the mystical pebbles from my hand and now it is officially time for you to "Re-Start" the process of developing the "perfect plans" for your uniquely specific, self determined path to ultimate happiness and optimum satisfaction.
I'm glad we could have this little talk together.

I sincerely hope you will come back so that we can continue the conversation and move even further and deeper into your plans for a enjoyable and profitable "Biz-E-Life!"
