What are the similarities between home ownership and business ownership?
In the year 2021, our family’s OKR check-in was conducted weekly
Despite some individuals’ distaste for the notion of home-based businesses, I have found that using this method to create a healthy and functional home has proven to be highly beneficial
The statement that home life is not a business because of differences in relationships with people at work is supported by true critics. I have gained valuable business skills that have helped us live a more peaceful, functional, and mission-oriented life in our home
The 18 rhythms in this collection have had a profound impact on my personal and professional life
1. Routine encounters with workers, offspring, and mate. This is an opportunity to check in with the person, celebrate their progress, and discuss ways to improve their situation
2. Schedule weekly team meetings with the family and business team to coordinate tasks, discuss projects, make decisions, and ensure they align on important matters
3. Quarterly goal-setting. By utilizing OKRs (Objectives and Key Results), we were able to work together on defining the significance of our goals and achieving them
4. Find success and rejoice in the accomplishment. This type of declaration will brighten the day for your children and spouse, while also inspiring and motivating those who work with you
5. Keep a budget. The management of resources is a crucial aspect for both the family and the business. The lack of this skill leads to a complex situation in the long run
6. Knowing the distinction between an opportunity and a distraction. The family and business are equally important in maintaining momentum in the right direction
7. Determine the boundaries of a number and type. This skill is applicable to all situations, regardless of the context
8. Manage daily tasks for your team, children, and yourself. The probability of achieving good results each time is raised, making it a more positive experience for everyone involved
9. Continuing education. This is a common point in professional settings, but it also applies to family life. Engage in reading, attending conferences, and listening to podcasts that are beneficial for your family
10. Determine the business and family path by utilizing the talents and abilities of the team. Determine the family team members ‘interests and personality strengths through pivots
11. Take breaks when it’s necessary. It is suggested to take time off for work. If you want to spend some time apart from the family, do it. Upon her return, Dana found that taking quarterly weekend retreats alone had renewed her enthusiasm for serving the family
12. Implement a project management system. Our work involves using project management software. A basic whiteboard is what we use for our living quarters
13. When you need revenue and work, employ a different team member. We have entrusted nannies, handymen, house cleaners, and other staff members to care for our family in our residence
14. Intentionally boost morale. The culture of the company is often characterized by this. The family’s culture and morale are influenced by various factors such as vacations, day trips, treats, retreats (such as museums or science fairs), board games, and ice cream shops
15. Create a primal brand that captures the hearts of your children/customers
16. Seek advice. Engage consultants to enhance your business. Employ therapists to aid in the healing of your marital issues. The latter holds a much higher value than the former
17. Establish a routine of customary events, such as birthdays, anniversaries, achievements, milestones and so on. Our children are taught the significance of our celebration and what it signifies
18. Evaluate the mission and core values on a regular basis. The growth of businesses is just as significant as the intentionality and growth brought by a family
A rhythm establishes a framework that ensures the smooth and efficient operation of both entrepreneurship and family, as well as creating an environment conducive to personal growth
“Intentional living” is another term used to describe this. This method focuses on taking charge of the situation rather than reacting to it. Your values and desired outcomes guide your actions
