Being a good father and husband

Being a good father and husband isn’t about the monumental but the ordinary.

If we think of it with the Pareto Principle:

  1. The Monumental - 20% of life that takes 80% of the effort
  2. The Ordinary - 80% of life that takes 20% of the effort

Sometimes this can feel flipped around where “The Ordinary” takes up 80% of our effort.

What I see in my life is that I obsess too much over “getting it right”, burning my energy on things that don’t need it.
