As entrepreneurs (创业者), we had a vision, we realized it, and now we {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (run) our own companies. But the dream can damage our "work-life balance".

When the success of the company rests on your shoulders, you've always got an excuse to put {#blank#}2{#/blank#} else on hold.

What I've learned when {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (face) the demands of a start-up company and a young family over the past couple of decades is that sometimes the best way to solve the work-life balance problem is to think small. Make a handful of lifestyle corrections {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, individually, may not sound all that exciting, but taken together, can prevent you from getting too tired.

Here's my list of life hacks that will help prevent exhaustion:

●Work from home one day a week

Few things give you a more grounded, in-control feeling than getting things done in your own space and at your own pace. Instead of leaving the office {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (clear) my head over a Starbucks coffee, I can fold the laundry, and cut back on evening housework.

Not to mention, working in pajamas is one of life's {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (underestimate) pleasures.

●Pencil in time for exercise

It really bothered me {#blank#}7{#/blank#} with the demands of company and family, my tennis game was going down the drain. That may sound unimportant, but it wasn't to me, {#blank#}8{#/blank#} it was a meaningful part of my life outside of work. To get some balance back in my life, I rearranged my schedule. Two mornings a week, I woke up an hour {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (early) to work out with a tennis coach. If sports aren't your thing, try yoga or that hobby that you always loved but let go of after starting your business.

●Learn something new, outside the office

It can be draining to always be the person who's supposed to have the answers as a business leader. It's surprisingly liberating to be on the other side, {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (absorb) knowledge without the pressure to perform or to always be right.
