Time is the most important, precious resource we have. There is no way to get more of it. For me, it has taken on a whole other level of meaning due to having our first child while working on building my business.

I work hard to never forget the reasons why I have made the choice to leave my family’s business for my own. Time and stress are two of the biggest factors when making this decision. Being available for friends and family is important to me, and stress can help make that reason disappear very quickly.

Make your time your priority and be mindful of how you spend it and with whom you spend it with. It’s an investment to give someone your time so make sure they are worthy of it.

Don’t be a jerk though, find ways to connect with everyone the best you can without too much sacrifice.

Make it count!
