Life Comes First December 1st, 2016 by Bill Boyajian |
Many of us get frustrated, even angry, when we can’t get instantaneous service for almost anything, be it on our smart phone, through a service provider, or even at a restaurant. The issue, of course, is that we’ve become so accustomed to getting things quickly that we get very upset when we don’t. I wonder, then, if we are losing patience, or if we just have higher expectations of ourselves and others. It seems to me that we could cut people some slack and not take ourselves so seriously. Those who have a more relaxed pace of life seem happier because of it. After all, we tend to cram so many things into our daily schedules, often to serve ourselves, our business, or our families, that we leave no room for margin. And then we wonder why we have so much stress. Find time for peace and relaxation in things that have meaning for you and others. And stick with the motto, “life comes first.” Tags: Advice, Angry, Character, Crisis Management, Customer Service, Developing Leaders, expectations, Frustrated, Humility, Knowledge, Learning, Life Tips, Patience, People, People Leaders, Personal Development, Reality, Relax, Reputation, Responsibility, Service, The Mind of a Leader |

“I needed help orchestrating a succession plan for our business. I had heard that Bill Boyajian specialized in assisting owners to transition their business to the next generation. He knows how to bridge the generation gap and deliver what each needs to hear. I would recommend Bill to any business owner who needs advice on succession planning from a trusted outside professional.”

"Our family needed some guidance on business transition and succession planning. We asked Bill Boyajian to help us because we knew we could trust him to tell us what we needed to hear. Bill became a valuable resource for our company and our entire family. He has the ability to meet each of us where we’re at and it has served us very well."

“We needed a plan to transition our business to a non-family member and we asked Bill Boyajian to help us. His experience in the area has really paid off, but we didn’t expect the added value of putting us together with a financial planner who helped organize our retirement needs. We now have the fundamentals to transition our business successfully, and we have Bill to thank for it.”
