Fatherhood and Success

Like everyone these days my goal is to be the best me possible.  I have found that saying is the easy part but actually doing is the hard part. Goal setting is easy if you know what it is you want out of life and working towards the goals is the difficult part. And to top it off being a father and husband added to that. We sometime get caught up in the routine called life. Being a husband and father takes effort and time, its beautiful thing not easy but beautiful thing.

Having them cheering you on at times when you think you cant go on anymore  is motivation in and of itself.

What i have learned since the last post it that to be a successful individual one must have these things: Focus, Drive and Determination. and To be a father you have to be there, don't miss the everyday little things of life, Spending time is invaluable.

Having a healthy body as well as mindset is important. Eating right and exercising, reading and spending time in the word. learning, building up the whole man goes a long way in helping you getting to the place where you want to be.

Everyday we should be learning, I look at my kids and see how care free they are and how they enjoy life. We have to get that mindset towards life , follow your dreams and have fun going the process. Time goes by so fast to miss whats really important.

Instead of looking at fatherhood and success as two separate thing they are actually "joined at the hip" being a great father is the definition of success.

Being Successful can't be voided of having a great family life. Often times i see that as a result of being success people , men especially ted to neglect the family side and achieve in the work arena. We should to look at them both as whole and not separate unrelated parts of our lives.

"The love of family and the admiration of friends in much more important than wealth and privilege" charles kuralt.

When it all boils down we cant neglect whats really important.

P.S. Chase those dreams without haste but don't neglect the family because of it.
