Key Points Discussed

Quality Time Over Quantity - The constant tug-of-war between work and family can lead to feelings of guilt and inadequacy. Many of you feel guilty for not spending enough time with your family due to work commitments. It's not about being there for every single moment; it's about making the moments you do have count.
Setting Shared Family Goals - When everyone is working towards a common goal, it creates a sense of unity and purpose. Sometimes, families drift apart because they don't have shared goals or visions. It brings the family together and keeps everyone motivated to work towards common goals.
Work-Life Boundaries - Gather the family and create a vision board. A visual representation of your family's dreams and goals. Sit down with your family and brainstorm what everyone wants to achieve. Use magazines, photos, or digital tools to create the vision board. Put it somewhere everyone can see daily. Regularly review and update it. Gurus like Oprah often say that visualizing goals makes them more achievable.
