After making this puff, John will put it in a portable show glass, carry it on his head and trek for more than 25km trying to sell off this puff puff. He does this from monday to Saturday, having just Sunday break for himself and the amount of money he makes his barely enough to support him and his family since he has a wife and two kids( boy and girl). So he thought of a way he can still work on a Sunday. May be by doing smallchops and cake

for occasions like weddings, birthdays, and other happy ceremonies. But this means that he needs to work all day from Sunday to Sunday. But he didn't mind because he wanted to make ends meet and make his family happy. This happened over the years and he became successful and he started expanding his business and making a lot of money from it. He bought a car, stayed in a comfortable apartment and his children were in a good school. But he never took time out to take care of himself or have a good day for himself. Doing all these over the years like waking up in the morning by 4am to start making the puff and selling it and coming back by 1pm so that he can prepare on going to the grocery store to buy more stuff his business. And looking for contract where he can make small chops for occasions stressed his entire body. The body needed rest but this man didn't care. Untill one day he slumped while organizing the making of a wedding cake. He was quickly rushed to the hospital, and he was told that he stresses his body so much that the body is not functioning properly. He needs a lot of sleep and peace of mind. He needs to put his health first because if he continues like this he might die. And he needs a good
sleep.

When we think of entrepreneur some people think of a high flying, suited and booted executive with a flashy tie and a smile to match. We have a rather different person in mind… We know that in today’s modern and busy world it’s easy to get overwhelmed, to forget to grab breakfast, or breathe properly, or remember to do the things that make us happy.

Little things we do that make us happy, like going for vacation, spending quality time with friends and family,Traveling for adventure, increases our life spam.
