Hello all:
My family is my top priority. There is no communication that interest me more because there is to much potential for real connection, love, intimacy with them. There is no one, beside a spouse that will ever have that much history on me. I used to be like others here. Business, Business always has the priority in my life but not any more. You don't remember the time at the office. You remember the time with your family. I had a born again experience though as a Christian and my heart was made flesh again so I now have God priorities, not mine any more.
As far as how to manage more real relationship and business together. I schedual it. I plan like maybe two hours for serious stuff and then I schedual spiritual time that feeds my soul like a call from a friend in the middle of my day, some ministry time that nurishes me and brings me alive in the middle of the doingness of the day. I'm refreshed and can give more in my work when my soul is refreshed. I take time a quick call to my husband, send a card to a friend or business friend.. share lunch over the phone with a friend or go out with a friend/business person for lunch. You have to watch out for the "tierney of time" because if you hone yourself to be effective only you will become drilled down, liveless and with out the creativity it takes to be effective in your business.
Real communication makes for real life and aliveness. They you don't feel this complete separation between business and your life and we all end of feeling like, whoowah, is my life nothing but work? There is a way to dance with it with more grace and be more fullfilled in that.
Blessings
