There's a book written by Andy Stanley that someone gave me earlier this year. It blew me away! Choosing to Cheat challenges the workaholic to weigh how his/her time is spent. When work and the family collide, which do you choose?
I've seen many books that just tell someone what the problem is with their priorities then simply throws out a solution saying "spend more time with your family." Choosing to Cheat doesn't accuse the workaholic of being a loser, it also presents a strategic plan for resolving tension between work and family. It challenges the choices we make when we cheat our family out of time that they deserve.
I've found that my kids always know if I care based on the attention I give them, not by how many times I tell them I love them. You can usually identify what you hold most important by measuring the time you spend and where. If you struggle with balancing work and family, this book could be a great help. Get it and read it!
