Respect Hard Work
Fellas, this one is for you. There are some very focused, and goal oriented men out here. Workaholics as the are called. But there are differences between putting work before family till the point that you end up losing them. There is a balance some where when it comes to this. So lets get to the point. Men you may find yourself being very focused on a project that will set you, and your family in a very good financial position. But, you find your wife complaining to you about how much you put into what you are doing and not spending enough time with the family, or her, simply because you are tired from all the hard work. Staying up all night working, and sleeping throughout the day.
Now, here is the important question that you need to ask yourselves men? When you find something that you want to do, like go after that dream you always wanted, especially that you know the end result is positive. Will my wife leave me, or will she just get mad? Think about that for a minute. Lets make and example. Say you are going out hanging with the boys all night and coming home late, versus, staying up all night because you are working toward a goal. Which one do you think she would leave you over, or just get upset with?
So women, this is where your support role comes into play. What I am saying is this. Women, I know that the bed can get cold when your man is up working all night. You begin to miss him. But respect that mans hard work! He is doing it for the benefit of BOTH of you. Women, you love security. If that man is doing something that is going to give you that...let him!
Here is an example. I know of a couple that went through this. The man was up on his computer all night. He would fall asleep on his couch, instead of coming to bed. It was not to be spiteful, he was just working hard. His wife was beginning to become frustrated with him because of this. But he had a goal in mind. With time passing, the results of his hard work began to surface!
Now being very successful with all the hard work. This family is VERY financially stable. Needless to say, she has no more complaints. She has the security, and is happy. She once was without work for about eight months. But do to his constant hard work. It paid off till the point that, even without her working. They were STILL ok. So, with this being said. Ladies, please respect your man's hard work. When he is focused, being all lovey dovey, is not the time. This does not mean that he does not love you anymore. He is just trying to make things better for you all. Support him, be there for him, and I GUARANTEE you will be fine.
