I believe all of those things are important; otherwise I would not spend my time on boards like this. But, I have seen entrepreneurs and most had to go through a phase, where they did not have a work life balance. All they did was work all the time (in excess of 100 hours a week). But now they have dream jobs and they have a work life balance that only financial independency can allow. All I am saying is that from what I have seen one has to be a fanatic about their business for it really to amount to anything.

Now take everything I say with a grain of salt, I have a full time job and spend my free time pursuing my general interest, entertainment, and walking on the beach.

Lastly, I know I strayed off topic. I do not really have any advice on your original question, except buy lots of rice?
