There is a myth that you must live a balanced life.

This is false.

Few people ever achieved great wealth through living a balanced life. They were focused, and unbalanced in their lives, in order to achieve great wealth.

To achieve anything great requires focus, dedication, determination, perseverance, early mornings, long days and late nights.
