Its very easy to lose sight of why we started doing what we are doing and have the busienss run us rather than the other way round. And of course this over-achieving, controling, extreme type A, driven personality it exactly the type that can be a really successful entrepreneur - when its not allowed to run away with itself.<br /><br />All speaking from direct personal experience here as Robert knows. And its still work in progress - witness the time of this comment :-)<br />SueSue Hewitthttp://www.milecastle.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-313427840293019864.post-36664854681363297102010-02-14T21:56:37.872+00:002010-02-14T21:56:37.872+00:00Please, no NLP.

Whatever the answer, I think that many entrepreneurs feel that they have been in a similar situation.
