"Rules are for people who do not have values." Today, Leila (@LeilaHormozi) explains why achieving work-life balance is misleading and why it's important to let go of the ideal of perfect balance. She argues that work and life are integrated and should be approached holistically, with a focus on values rather than rules, in order to achieve happiness and fulfillment.

Welcome to Build where we talk about the lessons I have learned in scaling big businesses, gaining millions in sales, and helping our portfolio companies do the same. Buckle up, because we’re creating an unshakeable business.
