Guys I don't believe anyone is telling you to sacrifice Family or Job. Here are some things I do.
I don't go out with the guys... Ever
I do not eat out, maybe once every months
I do not drink
I do not smoke
I stop playing golf, maybe 3 times a year now, instead of the 3 times a week I use to play.
There are pile more things I do also, but none effect my family life.
I don't spend 1 min less with my family than I did before, I just have shifted my free time Priorties. That is all he is talking about in his book.
Nobody, I mean nobody takes care of my kids, but me and my wife
See, thats just it.....I don't go out with the guys or smoke or play golf. If I go out to eat it is with my family. If I have free time, and that is time not spent with family, working on the house, cutting enough firewood for the next winter, time spent in the large garden growing stuff to eat, working around the house, or helping my extended family with their "chores, or working at my job, if I have free time I spend it in the deer woods or preparing for the deer woods (shooting arrows, amintaining gear, etc.) The only way to gain more time is to take away from family, house/garden, or job. To claim I am making excuses and do not have the desire or discipline is BS and I don't appreciate it.
