You’re reading a bedtime story to your kid, but your mind is still at the business. 2 Simple tips that will help entrepreneurs.
Sound familiar?
All day you’re racing:
• Chasing acquisitions
• Managing payroll
• Handling taxes
• Fighting fires 🔥
For a business owner and leader, it never stops. Literally.
Your body comes home.
But your mind?
Still running the race:
• Replaying conversations
• Worrying about deals
• Planning tomorrow
You try to blend into family life.
But you’re not really there.
Your family knows.
I see this with almost every client I coach.
Here are two techniques that actually work:
The Office/Workplace Exit Protocol:
• Physically shut down your computer
• Stand up
• Say out loud: “My work is done”
The Home Entry Reset:
• Park your car
• Set timer: 5 minutes
• Breathe in, breathe out
• Count down from 27 to 1 (in, out, 27, in, out, 26 etc)
• Say: “I am home now”
• Set intention: “I am a family man”
Simple? Yes.
Easy? No.
Effective? Absolutely.
Your family doesn’t need your body at home.
They need YOU at home.
