This week I think the most influential thing for me was the
2-minute video posted about Steve Blank where he shares his thoughts on
entrepreneurship and family. He talks
about rules that he set up for himself that helped to establish his family as a
priority in his life. He explains that
if you are single, you should stay single but that if you are married and had a
family, you should be home for dinner every night and try to be home on the
weekends to spend time with your family as much as possible. Steve explained that he usually had to work
after the kids for about 5 hours every night, but he made sure that he was home
for dinner and to put them in bed. I
think this was a valuable strategy. He
talks about how you can have a successful startup but it will mean nothing
unless you have some other success or joy in your personal life. I think this goes along nicely with the other
talks and readings for this week were time seems to be the most valuable asset
and we must choice how to manage it in our personal and professional
lives.
