Work/Life Balance
with Jordan Peterson

This is for the dads out there…

Balancing work and family life is HARD. I haven’t quite figured it out. YET.

It’s a work in progress…

It’s easy to be completely consumed by work as a means towards income, status, and living a better life.

But kids don’t understand this. They don’t understand the importance of work.

We work tirelessly to provide for our family and at times that comes at the cost of being present.

I am reminded of a quote by T.D. Jakes: “It’s not what you leave TO your kids, it’s what you leave IN them.”

Couple that quote with the statistics from Jordan Peterson and you can realize that kids really need us to be present, in their life, and interested in THEM.

Just a little reminder to all us dads that we need to always do better for our kids :)

Patriot Ventures News
with Kyle Rittenhouse

This past weekend I hosted Kyle Rittenhouse.

It was great getting 1 on 1 time with him. I learned so much about his story, what he’s been through, and the truth the woke mainstream media doesn’t share.

Kyle has joined Patriot Ventures (formerly Patriot Pay) as an Ambassador. Together we are helping guns and ammo retailers ditch Stripe/Square and move to Patriot Ventures.

Spending time with Kyle speaks truth to the adage: You dont know someone until you know their story.

Everyone has moments in their life they wish they could take back. Even myself. It’s time we give people grace and get to know them for who they really are.

This is not Kyle

THIS is Kyle

A 21 year old young man. Who loves dogs, training kids how to swim, and also shooting his guns 🙂 He has a big heart and wants to help people.

Takeaway: You don’t know someone until you know their story. Remember that!
