Connect with your familyConnect with your familyOne of the biggest challenges of today’s time-pressed parents is having quality time with their children. Fostering a true connection with kids and family doesn’t always have to mean scaling back your work hours or stepping off the career fast track. Try these suggestions to stay connected: It's been a few days since the last blog with so many shows the last few weeks it got me thinking. Even tho I'm surrounded by all these great people and at all these amazing events I still feel like I'm missing something. After some thinking at a baseball game I was performing at this week I realized it was family. I hadn't seen any family in almost 3 weeks! And then I realized it was a perfect topic for today's blog.
You see one of the biggest challenges of today’s time-pressed parents is having quality time with their children. Fostering a true connection with kids and family doesn’t always have to mean scaling back your work hours or stepping off the career fast track. Try these suggestions to stay connected: • Hold weekly family meetings. Use them to schedule everyone’s activities for the week, from school meetings and athletic events to family outings. Give your kids a say on decisions; it makes them feel like an integral part of the family. • Share your child’s interests. Yes, that means enduring their rap music on the family-room stereo. Get them subscriptions to magazines associated with their hobbies or activities, and commit to reading at least one kid-related article each month to stay abreast of their world. • Share your work with them. Bring them to your workplace. Show them what you do and how your work relates to the entire organization. When you have a particular success at work, celebrate it with your family. Until next time have a great day and remember to love one another and where there's magic.....Miracles Await |
