Work-ahol

Are you so drained from work that you have little energy to give your kids? It is time to redefine success.

Work-ahol

Parents tell me that one of their greatest challenges in raising their kids today is that they’re just worn out.

The American Family & American Dream

Yet much of this exhaustion comes from the self-inflicted wounds of business and workaholism— trying to have it all. They’ve turned the American dream into a nightmare when money and stuff become their gauge for success.

But life’s a trade-off. An undue emphasis on financial success too often negatively affects our families and our health. Proverbs 24:17 says, “Don’t wear yourself out to get rich. Have the wisdom to show restraint.” There’s always more time to make a buck, folks. But each passing day is one less day we have to impart wisdom to our kids while cultivating lifelong relationships with them.
