I Will Spend More Time with the People I Love

» Topics


Maybe it's spending more time with the kids.  Maybe it's spending some time together without the kids.  Maybe it's a dinner with those freinds you've seen so little of since your new job started.  Whatever it is, remember: These are the times you will look back on and cherish, long after everyone's forgotten that report you stayed late at the office to finish.


While you and your team work to make your goal a reality, this topic page is for everyone interested in making sure our precious time is spent on what really matters.  Share your stories, ideas, questions and advice.


To post to this page, just join or log in, click Journal under Create Stuff on the left, and choose Spend More Time with the People I Love as the topic.


We have gathered some resources to help get you started.  Take a look, recommend the best, and add your own discoveries to the list.
