The recipe for a happy life consists of three ingredients. The ingredients are important, but so is how you mix them together. Brought to you by FinancialFreedomTool.com.
There are times when it’s risky to mix the two. One obvious example is getting involved romantically with a co-worker. You really have to be careful here. It can come back to bite you.
You also have to be careful if you go into business with, go to work for, or hire friends or family.
___
For example, it can really be tough to work with your spouse.

Wait a minute, Mary-Lynn. I’m not sure I like the direction this conversation is heading.

It works just fine for us, but I can’t tell you how many people have told me they could never do what we do. We’re together almost all the time. It’s great, but it does present its challenges.

You have to be aware of that and do what works best for you. Mary-Lynn can’t get enough of me so it works out well for her!

Work is play
If your work isn’t pleasurable, then don’t do it. Work can be work or work can be play. If you love your work, it’s like not working at all.
You’ll be more productive doing work you love. You’re more likely to rise to the top of your field if you do work you find pleasurable.
Fun people
If you work with people with whom you don’t enjoy working, work with other people. Life’s too short. Build relationships with people who you like to be around.
You may retort that you can’t control who your co-workers are. We understand. However, if your company is large enough, you can choose who you spend the most time with when you’re not on-task. Hang with people who are positive, forward-thinking, and fun to be around.
Travel
We often mix business with pleasure when we travel. Even if it’s just sneaking away for some sight-seeing for part of the day, it makes the whole thing more fun.
Mixing business with pleasure creates synergy – the bigg idea behind bigg success. Keep both worlds at the top of your mind simultaneously and find synergies between work and play. It will help you reach bigg success even faster!
