  1. It is absolutely true that you need to figure out what is important in your life in order to achieve work life balance. It is really easy to get caught up in what seems to be important at the time rather than to focus on what gives you the most satisfaction in life. Evaluating what your values are and following a life plan can make all the difference when it comes to being the best father you can be.
