While the book 'How Will You Measure Your Life' doesn't provide specific examples of individuals who have successfully implemented the management theories, it's based on the experiences of many successful people. For instance, consider a successful entrepreneur who allocates time for family and personal growth alongside their business. They might set specific hours for work and strictly adhere to them, ensuring they also have time for family and personal activities. They might also invest in their personal growth, like learning new skills or pursuing a hobby, which contributes to their overall happiness and work-life balance. This approach mirrors the resource allocation problem discussed in the book.
