On the turn of this new decade @marj_galangco and I agreed that we would look for opportunity this year to have as much fun as possible whilst working hard on our multiple web-based businesses.

Here's a neat trick to do that:

Create balance.

Since I've incorporated more socializing, more reading, more travelling, more exercise and more healthier food choices into my lifestyle, it's like the universe has just started bending further towards my desires.

I'm not joking either. From opportunities to work with multi-national businesses to guest posting for one of the biggest social media blogs on the net, to getting to work on projects with some of the industry leaders, to being in talks to be featured on one of the biggest online magazines - it's all happening this year... and I attribute it to the fact that I've created balance in the pursuit of fun.

We're here on this earth in our current form for a reason. We are here to experience life. So how does sitting behind a desk all day translate? Pretty poorly if you ask me.

Create balance and see your productivity blow up, literally.
