Enough Is Enough

During a counseling session at Canyon Ranch, he covered a wall with index cards, each of which listed one of his many obligations. "No wonder stress was getting to me so much," he says. Coleman already knew that what mattered most to him was not business success or wealth, but religious faith. He was a devout Christian -- and yet, he says, "I knew I didn't have the balance that God wanted me to have."

So Coleman began setting limits. He resigned from three of the boards on which he served, and he hired someone to assume more of his responsibilities at work. None of this was easy. "I could spend 24 hours a day at my business," he says. "I love it. And the business could be bigger than it is now. But at what cost?"

He also tended to his problematic marriage by returning to Canyon Ranch with his wife Cindi. For two weeks, they took part in intense daily sessions with Dan Baker. The trip not only saved the marriage but also "took it to the next level," says Coleman.

Coleman has returned to Canyon Ranch for at least a week during each of the past seven years -- to recommit himself to his faith, to address his other needs, to recharge. "I tell my clients, 'I'm going away for a week, but I'll be coming back with great ideas for you and your company. Believe me, this is going to help all of us.'"
