Does Your Family DRIVE You or DERAIL You?

Woah 😳 People sent me some crazy messages over the weekend, people are not just resonating with some of the messages I’ve been putting out but they’re chasing answers! I’m talking about confident business owners & families that so often appear like they’ve ‘got it all’ but behind closed doors they’re falling apart. I get it, I’ve certainly been there & as a family I’ve felt the exhaustion of pretending...& let me be clear in saying we’re still working hard at the core 4 everyday. But I'll follow that by saying it’s less exhausting trying to improve than it is accepting your frustrations as the new norm.

Its got me thinking why does the start of a business so often lead to the end of a relationship?

Why does the start of a family often mean the end of our energy towards our partner? Not to mention the demise of our tolerance!!?

I’ve got my thoughts but more importantly I’ve got an empowering belief to share and that is that your family is meant to compliment your wealth plans not compete against them! It’s a pooling of resources, a multiplier of purpose, a structure of cheerleaders that pushes you through the dark times... The question therefore is how do you actually see it? Does having a family drive you or derail you? Is it their fault you’ve not reached your goals or is it just your perception? I used to think it was them, now I know it was me. That change was the start of all other changes. So for those of you who reached out at the end of your tether, stop, think 🤔then start with you before you point the finger at them.

If this resonates with you or someone comes to mind as you read it let me know by leaving a 🤔 in the comments.
