It's the Perfect Time

Being a new dad is the perfect time to re-evaluate our lives and how we’re doing it.  It is also double perfect time because we are in the time of the Pandemic. 

Of course, it is always a good time for anyone to be clear and aware of their purpose in life and how well we’re doing it.  For the new dad – Those first 3 years are a crisis!  The experience will cause us to evaluate what is important to us, what is not, and to discard as much “this is not important” as possible from our lives.

We might set out in early dad-hood and have an intention to provide for our families and we may be successful in doing so.  This is honorable.  Beautiful.  Archetypal.  Also, it is important that we not become working automatons who become unhappy and our wives and children have to pay the price.  IE: Grumpy Dad.

You can be Joyful Dad!!  You may already be joyful and happy most of the time and something may also be nagging beneath the surface.  Being a new dad is the perfect time to take hold of a life transition and crisis and make sure you are living it the way you want to.

Intro music: Funk loop by Campbell.  Below are two tracks that were the first two takes a few days before I recorded the “Final” version of this podcast.  On these I didn’t get into recording the content but I thought the music tracks were good!
