Your health is your Business

My allergies have been acting up the last few days, this has proven to be quite a bother in terms of productivity. My fluctuating energy levels, irritable demeanor provided great challenges in getting things done how I wanted and when I wanted and definitely annoyed those I interacted with (that's the mild way of putting it). I don't know about you but I tend to become abnormally sensitive when I'm not well. .

As an entrepreneur you often need to get things done in a timely and efficient manner to achieve your goals and objectives. It is therefore very important to define structures in your Start-up to account for periods of ill-health for yourself or your staff. Significant periods of down-time can affect your overall outcomes in a major way. Let me say it another way, the less time spent working means the less money you can make.

As the founder(s) of the Start-up, your health is especially important.This is in terms of knowledge, motivation and leadership. Until, your business has reached the point where those who work for you have assimilated the vision and can appropriate it even in your absence, you must be deliberate about staying healthy. As I always say to people, don't kill yourself trying to make life.

Think about it, if you don't slow down and pay attention to your health, one day you will just stop.
Oh, did I forget to mention, your dream stops with you, worse case, it dies with you. Let us be responsible builders, don't just work in your life, work on your life, stay healthy.
