Devon: Guys come to me and say they have time-management problems.

What I realized is people don’t have time-management problems, they have people pleasing problems.

When someone asks me for a commitment, I never say yes right away.

I say “that sounds like a great idea, can I get back to you tomorrow.” 

That gives me space between the excitement of the opportunity, with if this is in line with my family.

Life is pretty simple — it’s scheduled, it’s intentional.

It’s amazing the freedom that being more intentional allows you.

Structure felt very rigid to me…but what I realized was that structure was the most freeing thing.

*Jesse Itzler talks about how scheduling everything (including family time) helps make his life more intentional:

Rob: And, that doesn’t mean you have to say yes to everything your kids want to do. 

Simple, not easy.  But it’s something you need to hear from other Dads, especially experts like you.

Devon: One of my favorite lines I say to my children is, ‘I love you, and no.’
