Speaker 1
I used to be the most stressed man on earth. was working for a large company in the city and I used to spend up to twelve hours a day in my office, struggling with mountains of paperwork. got up at six every morning and didn't usually get home until late in the evening. My family never saw me. never had time to meet up with my friends. It was no kind of life, really. Then one day, suddenly realised that I was letting life pass me by. I decided that there are more important things in this world than a fat pay packet. That was it. gave up my job and found work in a much smaller firm, where there was much less pressure. I took quite a big drop in salary, but it was worth it. Having a well-paid job is not the only measure of success, is it? I believe that if you are happy with your life, then you are truly successful.

When you become a parent, you have all kinds of plans. Everybody does. We all think we will be the best parent ever; that we will be there for our children as they grow up and that we will give them all the attention they need. In reality, though, it is not as simple as that. Most of us have to work, so we are away from our homes for most of the day When I had my eldest daughter, l knew that my life would have to change if I was going to be the parent l wanted to be. I gave up my job with a large fashion company and began to work from home, designing and making clothes. It meant that I could still work, and I also had the opportunity to be at home with my children. Ithink we're all much happier as a result.

Life in the city was so hectic that I was always stressed out. It took me over an hour to get to work on the train and the bus, and by the time I got to the office l felt worn out. Then there were all the traffic fumes and the noise. It really wasn't very healthy. Then last year,Iwent to visit some friends who live in a tiny village, miles away from anywhere. Their lifestyle was so much more relaxed and peaceful that decided there and then to move out to the country. Now I live in a little cottage, surrounded by fields and trees. work from home, so there are no more tiring journeys on public transport and Iam a far more positive person.

My view is that, if you really want to improve your life, you should try to improve the lives of others. I started doing charity work about five years ago and, since then, I have raised thousands of pounds and made life better for hundreds of people around the world. It is a truly wonderful feeling to know that you are using your life, your time and your energy for those in need. It also makes you realise how lucky you are to have a roof over your head, food and cean water to drink. There are so many people in the world who are ess fortunate than I am, so i think it is only right to try and give something back.
