I will use my own priorities. They do not have to be yours.
My family comes first. I also have businesses, clients and enough things to do that I could not finish them in two lifetimes, even if I travelled through both of them in both directions.
So how do I decide?
I ask myself whether I would prefer a business with ten times the revenue if the price were not having my wife and son. The answer is no.
Then I have to act accordingly. Literally put them first.
First I block the time for them in the calendar. Then I block time for the projects I care about. The time left over is for the ordinary running of things. If something will not fit, I do not have time for that thing. It does not automatically mean that I have no time for my family.
I am not presenting myself as a great family guru. My wife could leave me and my son could get his face tattooed. But at least it will not be because I gave them no attention.
The business consequence matters too. Once some of your time is unavailable, you have to organise the work around that. You have to teach people, give them responsibility and get a result through the organisation. You cannot keep using another hour of your own time as the answer to everything.
For me, the other thing in this category is physical health. I am not particularly interested in having more money if I am out of breath climbing the stairs.
What would make the success of the company pointless if you lost it?
That is the question. Answer it for yourself, then put the answer in the calendar before the work fills it.
One of the things I have written about is the lunch time I block with my wife during the working week. Going out, eating together, going to the gym together. It is in the middle of the week on purpose. It has to exist even when I am busy.
