Prioritizing Family Over Work

Finding work-life balance is a challenge, especially for parents whose careers may be impacted by having children. The trade-offs between spending time with kids and work responsibilities can be daunting. However, it is important to prioritize family and give more time to children than what feels comfortable. This may involve making a schedule that scares a bit, even if it means sacrificing some professional opportunities. Actor Michael Keaton's decision to take a break from movies while his kids were young exemplifies the idea that one rarely regrets dedicating time to family, but often regrets prioritizing work over the years.
