Show Notes:
If you want to change your behavior, you first have to change your mindset.
Many entrepreneurs don’t create the time and space to do for their families what they do for their businesses.
Your family is the most important team in your life.
When your family life is strong, then you have the space to give your all to your business.
To build a great family life, you have to first do the work on yourself.
What often happens in families is that people bring a very diluted version of themselves to the table.
If you can’t clearly articulate what you want out of life, you won’t know how to ask for what you want.
Once you're clear about who you are individually, you and your partner can come together and create a shared vision.
It’s not always easy for a couple to have an aligned vision for their family, but there are always commonalities.
Very rarely do people think a decade ahead for their personal lives.
