Question: 
 
Now that I've started my home-based business, I feel as though I 
work all the time. I feel guilty when I don't work, even on the 
weekends. Is this normal? 
 
Answer: 
 
ELIZABETH: I think you have to have balance—but you have balance 
with anything in life. Some people are naturally wired to just be a 
workaholic, and then some people have that ability to just shut things 
off.  
 
In our case, our work is so much fun that we sometimes don’t know 
when we’re working and when we’re not. We have to pysically look at 
our calendar sometimes and plan things based on our visual of how 
our calendar works. Then we have to take into consideration the 
people that we care about, and ask, “Are we spending enough time 
with those people?” And if not, oftentimes we need to say “no” to 
some really good things so we can say “yes” to some really great 
things. That helps us with balance in our business. 
 
RANDY: So if you’re feeling guilty about working all the time, make 
yourself take some time off, because you will find that it will really be 
a benefit to you and your business.
