Our kids are usually in the right place at the right time. But sometimes they are in the wrong place, or they are in the right place at the wrong time. I find it’s important to create time with kids to make sure they are taking in what they need and getting it done.
My kids are in the right place at the right time. I just wasn’t there.
Kids also have a big role in my adult life. If you haven’t noticed, I’m a busy guy. I’ve got a bunch of jobs and responsibilities I have to juggle, and I don’t always remember to take care of myself. That is sometimes a problem. I just don’t always have time for myself, so I’m often caught in the middle of a conflict between my career and my family.
I think it’s important to be able to focus on your family and your career at the same time. We all have different things we want to accomplish, and we all have different priorities. Some may want to spend more time with their parents and get things done more often. Some may want to spend less time at home and have more time doing their own thing. Some may want to do both at the same time, or maybe one in a different way.
I’m guilty of this myself. I’ve often wished I could live a more balanced life. I’ve wondered if I could live as an adult without my parents and do something else with my life.
It is true that there is no right way to get things done. A person may want to live a balanced life, or they may want to live their life on their own terms, or perhaps they want to spend all their time doing what they want. Sometimes we do what we want and sometimes we do what we need to do, and sometimes we do the opposite.
I was recently reading an article on the benefits of being organized. It said that the best thing you can do to increase your productivity is to find a way to focus your time. It also pointed out that focusing on what you need to accomplish is good for your health, and that it is a lot better than focusing on what you don’t need to do.
This is the thing with kids. For the most part they are too young to understand that focus means different things to different people. So it’s hard for them to tell you that they’re busy cleaning up the mess that is your closet or your room or your dining room table. You have to be clear to let them know that you are taking a specific action and that you are focusing on this or that.
Because your parents don’t seem to have a clue about your behavior, they can’t really help you if you dont do something. You can’t take it back.
Like most kids, my kids are so busy doing things for themselves and everyone else that they ignore any advice that you give them about what to do. One of my kids once told me that she would go out of her way to do things that she was told not to do. She did this often.
