Description

What do we humans spend most of our time on?

They say how you choose to spend your time is a reflection of how you choose to live your life. Every decision, every moment invested, contributes to the tapestry of your existence. Regrettably, some realize the things that matter most when it is too late and the opportunities have already slipped away.

During his final days, Steve Jobs yearned to develop a genuine connection with his family. Recognizing the value of these precious bonds, he sought to bridge the gaps and delve into the depths of familial relationships, cherishing the opportunity to know and be known by those closest to his heart. 

Jim Sheils, a renowned advocate for strong family relationships, has introduced a transformative concept known as the “Family Board Meeting.” This innovative approach emphasizes dedicated quality time with loved ones, allowing families to connect deeply and create lasting memories. 

Through the Family Board Meeting, Jim guides families in setting aside intentional moments to foster understanding, communication, and growth. By implementing this powerful practice, families can strengthen their bonds and cultivate a harmonious and fulfilling family life.

In this episode, Darius and Jim engage in a captivating discussion about the profound influence Steve Jobs had on Jim's perspective on family and the subsequent impact on his own relationships. They explore the value of applying core principles from business success to family life. They also discuss the crucial role of positive anticipation in generating excitement within the family dynamic, as well as the need for intermittent tech fasting to foster meaningful interactions.
