A short YouTube monologue by Chris Larsen reflecting on the need for balance between business success and personal life. The speaker warns that men can be professionally successful yet fail in health, marriage, and parenting due to imbalance, describes becoming "sick and tired," and cites faith and participation in men's groups (biblical and secular) as part of the solution.
We're always looking for other opportunities to be more successful in business and more successful in life. And what we find is that there's a lot of one dimensional guys tremendously successful in the business world, but they're a complete train wreck in their health. Maybe they've been divorced three or four times. And it's not because their wives are a problem. It's because they are the problem. They don't know their children, their children don't talk to them right. Well, it's because they've been so unbalanced in their entire life that they haven't paid attention to the most important things, which is your family and those that you're responsible to. And so I got sick. I got sick and tired of said, listen, you know, I'm, and I'm a man of faith. So it's just more of me going, okay, God, you just, you put this burden on my heart. What would you want me to do? And this idea of man continued to resonate with me. I'd have been a part of some men's groove, some of them biblical based, some of them just worldly based, so to speak. And them had the qualities of what I was looking for and what other men that I had been talking to were looking for. So.
