[QUOTE="walleyeman_1875, post: 221098, member: 2147"] Damn good topic as I would have to guess quite a few people think the same way. I haven't come up with a silver bullet yet. As PrairieGhost said, lots of the stress in self-inflicted with trying to provide every opportunity possible for your kids......this could be to our detriment though. A few ideas I've come up with: 1. sell the house and move into a 3bdrm apartment. Eliminates financial stress. 2. reduce/limit the activities kids do......as long as this 'free-time' is spent doing family activities. - if you actually think about the amount of time you spend with your kids, it's very depressing. 3. change the mindset of leaving work at work and not bringing home the stresses. Also, realize that it's work. Do the job you were hired to do. If you want to run the company some day, well then you better have a different mindset. but for most of us, do your job and do it well but don't let it consume you. [/QUOTE]
