Executive Advice: family comes first
I was reminded of an important lesson tonight: your family comes first.
Make no mistake! Your time, sweat, blood, tears, thoughts, efforts and labor belong to the company…but everything else, you owe to your family. By family I mean wife, husband, partner, significant other, kids, parents…or all of the above. Keep your family happy at home and your days go faster, your reports are easier to do, your meetings are more enjoyable at work. I don’t know why this is true, I just know that it is.
While you are expected to have your ‘berry on the ready at all other times, family time means put it away. No cell phones, emails, stupid reports, things to review…just quality time with the ones you love.
