Ted Lowe, Family First founder Mark Merrill, and Pro Football Hall of Famer Tony Dungy tackle that topic on today’s episode. Tony spent years on NFL sidelines and long hours in his office drawing up game plans, but Fridays were always dedicated to family. He shares stories on the podcast about spending designated time with his children – even during the Super Bowl! Mark raised five kids and made a point to schedule intentional time to spend with them. He tells stories about doing whatever they wanted on their birthdays and even making them each “President For The Day” on occasion at All Pro Dad. Work-life balance will rarely be evenly split 50/50. There will be seasons of busyness at the office. There will be times when we can plug in more at home. Regardless of how the ratio breaks down for you in this season, commit to giving your kids your full attention when you are around, even if it’s not as many hours as you wish.Bottom line:Be aware.Be united. Be prepare. Be present. Be creative. Today’s Pro Move: Look at how much time you have available for your kids and maximize that time. Remember to be creative with your time.
