The Entrepreneur’s Source Reviews: Work-Life Balance and Why You do Not Need to Tradeoff
In today’s career economy, 76 percent of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, according to CNN Money. These over-exhausted corporate employees hardly have any time or money to do anything other than keep their families afloat. Because of the competitiveness of the job market, people are taking jobs with lower salaries and yet are putting in more time, energy and effort.
In today’s financial environment, it has become nearly impossible to earn an income, maintain a lifestyle and build a nest egg without major sacrifice. However, that doesn’t mean it can’t be done. Today, The Entrepreneur’s Source® reviews why work-life balance doesn’t need to be a tradeoff and how moving from Employment to Empowerment® may be the answer.
The Problem with Trade Offs
Employees working in corporate America are forced to make many trade-offs to keep their jobs in this competitive job market. Some employees spend hours a day commuting to and from work to earn a steady paycheck. Some decide to relocate with their companies to keep up with the rat race. Others are pressured to work overtime without being paid extra to get all of their work completed instead of telling their higher up that they have too much on their plate. In fact, Americans work more hours than any other industrialized country in the world.
Most workers make these sacrifices to better provide for their families, when in reality, they are missing out on their children’s dance recitals, school plays and baseball games. They oftentimes miss out on date nights or going out with friends because they simply are too exhausted once they get home from work to socialize. Americans not only work more hours than other developed countries, but we also take fewer vacations, work longer work days and retire at an older age. Although it’s most often with the best intentions, these individuals trade in time with their children and spouses to log in more hours for the security of a steady paycheck, but this security no longer exists.
While we’re doing all of this, we’re spending our time and energy working on someone else’s dream and contributing to their Income, Lifestyle, Wealth and Equity – not yours or our family’s. This realization doesn’t come easy and may be frustrating, but it’s time to set this frustration aside and to channel it into change.
Move from Employment to Empowerment®
Take a minute to ponder this question: What would happen if you started spending all of those countless hours at the office instead doing something for yourself? What would your life look like and how would you feel? If this vision of yourself is appealing, then it’s probably time for you to move from Employment to Empowerment®.
Shifting away from reactive employment toward a more proactive approach, such as franchise business ownership, can be a transformative experience for not just you, but your entire family. When you invest in a franchise, you’re never in your business alone and have continuous support. Investing in an already established brand with already functional systems can allow you to build the Income, Wealth, Equity and Lifestyle that you’ve always desired without many of the dreaded tradeoffs that corporate America forces workers to make.
Work-life balance doesn’t need to be a tradeoff. You have the power to take control of your career and define what career and personal happiness means to you. With franchise business ownership as a vehicle, any future is possible.
