One thing I’ve been considering lately is whether I should increase my work hours or not. The concept of work-life balance is popular among employees, but it’s quite a different thing when you are self-employed and have to choose how much and what kind of work to take - as it’s easy to do too much and then end up burnt-out.

Another thing we saw on ‘A new life in the sun - Where are they now’ is how some of the more entrepreneurial people were able to expand their businesses by taking on more projects as their initial idea succeeded - for example, a couple invested the money they earned with their restaurant by buying a condo to renovate it and rent it.

We watched a few episodes of ‘A new place in the sun - Where are they now’ while in the UK, resting on the couch after a day of walking on the Dales Way. I like this show as we too have a dream of having a place of our own at some point, somewhere more rural than where we live and have grown up in - and to have some sort of passive (as well as active) income from it.

I’ve been enjoying putting my thoughts on my Instagram account, but since I created a website for my coaching business I’ve realized that blogging is a much better avenue for what I am doing
