Stop using your family as an excuse

Nov '24 (edited) in Mindset

"I want to spend more time with my family"

"I need to focus on my relationships"

"I can't pursue that because of my kids"

Know what these really are?

Excuses.

And painful ones at that.

Because here's the thing nobody talks about...

Using your relationships as an excuse not to build something meaningful doesn't actually make you a better partner, friend, or parent.

It makes you a frustrated one.

Think about it...

What message are you actually sending to your kids when you say "I had a dream once, but then you came along"?

What example are you setting when you use them as an excuse not to chase bigger and better things?

Here's what I've learned from getting to know many successful nomad families is that...

You don't have to choose.

The whole "either be successful OR be a good parent/partner" thing?

It's bullshit.

The best parents, partners, and friends I know are the ones building something they're proud of.

Why?

Because they're showing their kids, partners, and friends what it looks like to be fully alive.

What it looks like to chase what matters.

What it looks like to build something meaningful.

What example do you want to set?
