By dedicating specific blocks of time to family, work, and hobbies, I create space for each important aspect of my life. This intentional scheduling allows me to be fully present and effective in whatever I&#8217;m doing.<\/p>\n<p>I also enjoy bullet journalling, which I use to note down all my to-dos for the day, the week, the month, and to prioritise these tasks or goals. It helps to make all the things we have to do feel more manageable, and frees up space in our minds to actually think and create. One final tip I live by: If you can do it in five minutes or less, just do it now.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2013 Vicki Chuard, 37, Founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justpeachybasics.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Just Peachy<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>2.

Being an active and competitive ocean paddler, I spend three to four mornings a week on the ocean for Outrigger paddle club training sessions, followed by a well deserved breakfast with paddle mates at our club house in Deep Water Bay. It\u2019s a great way to get in some high-intensity training and socialising before kicking off your day which, for me is just the perfect combo.<\/p>\n<p>Since I\u2019ve become a dog mama to Crosby, a beautiful golden retriever\/Alaskan malamute, I love to spend an hour or two walking, swimming, stand-up paddling, or surf-skiing with Crosby near my home in Stanley. Time with him is always incredibly grounding, and I feel so honoured to have this special bond with this gorgeous creature. Having this affectionate, fun, sporty, and adventurous dog in my life just gives me so much happiness!<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2013 Julia Washbourne, 49, Founder and Director of <a href=\"https:\/\/bamboahome.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Bamboa Home &amp; Lifestyle<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>3.

That, for me, are piano lessons, calligraphy, and my all-time favourites: cocktail hour and karaoke.

What I try to remind myself is if I have balance and feel good, I will be a better version of myself for my company. Additionally, setting priorities is crucial. When I first launched Communicate, saying yes to opportunities, growing my business, and delivering a quality product took absolute precedence and everything else came second.<\/p>\n<p>I also stick to the idea that if it&#8217;s in my diary, it&#8217;s happening! So, I put literally everything in my diary: walks, coffee catch-ups, reading, physio&#8230; If it&#8217;s not in there, I&#8217;m not doing it. Finally, one of my hobbies outside of work is golf. I absolutely love it and being outside in nature brings me so much joy, especially in Hong Kong. Golf is a sport that helps me to truly switch off, exercise, and spend quality time with family and friends.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2013 Melanie Staunton, 38, Founder and CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/communicatetraining.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Communicate<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>5.
