If you're like most entrepreneurs, you have a hard time separating work and life. Even when you're not working, you're thinking about work, or dealing with issues remotely by phone or email.

Sometimes there's no way around it, whether you own a company or work for one. The world has changed, and our definition of 'balance' has changed with it.

But that doesn't mean exhaustion and burn-out are inevitable.

Your Business is here to help. In the third of a series of Q&As with experts, we have invited the host and a featured speaker from Engage Today 2010, taking place in Calgary from June 4 to 6, to answer some of your questions about how to become an 'engaged' entrepreneur rather than an 'exhausted' one.

In a nutshell, our experts want to help streamline what you do.

Readers can submit queries by linking through to our comments field in the prompt below. We will send a selected number of them to our experts and post their answers Friday on the Your Business home page.
