The mantle of greatness on my shoulders is getting heavy. It sounds horrible but I totally get why so many of us fall to either affairs, alcohol, or divorce.

Its just SO unrelenting. Its a nightmare. I have no energy to do anything after a 60 hour work week, cooking, cleaning, walking youngest to bed until 11 pm and then waking up at 5. One day off a week. I’m just so fking over it 🤢

    The secret is actually enjoying who you’re with during the day. If you don’t like that then, well there’s your problem.

    I have 3 kids and my parents are ageing enough and I’m the only male heir that I’m now taking on the role of head of the family more and more. I also manage a branch at work so I have a lot of responsibility there too. It’s fun once you give in and start enjoying what you’re doing. As with most things mindset is everything.
