]]> There’s nothing like the arrival of a new baby or grandchild to make you reflect on fundamental questions about business, life and what’s really important to you. For a new baby, you may focus on how you want to live, and question whether you want to keep working so hard in your business. A grandparent may ask: “If I had my time again, what would I do differently?”

When asked this question, many business owners would eagerly say “a truckload of cash!” But while earning a profit is important, ultimately we're often driven by other measures of whether we are "a success" in business and/or life.
