I think you've got the picture...and plenty of splinters I would think.


This is an opportunity for a season of change Brad. Think about ten, fifteen, twenty years from now...when your boys are grown and off after their own pursuits. Think about them marrying and beginning to have grandchildren.


At that point on down the line, you will think back to the decisions that you are making today.


Whatever you have been to this point is not what you have to continue being. This is a chance for change, a chance for re-evaluating what is truly important and crucial in your life.


For pete's sake, you trained to be a doctor who specializes in cardiac surgery....but you trained to be a doctor...a DOCTOR. People need doctors everywhere. It's a great accomplishment to be sure.


But twenty years from now your patients won't be visiting during the holidays with their kids.


You don't have to turn your back on one to prioritize the other. No excuses...no "yeah, but's"....be a doctor....but for God's sake... be a father too.


Even if you haven't taken to the role just yet, trust us when we say it is the most rewarding and fulfilling role you will EVER take on.


Blessings,

Bill
