Keys for loving your family

Another list from Tony Dungy's Book - Uncommon.

Pg. 73

Keys for loving your family:

1. Be a leader around your home, but lead for the benefit of your wife and children, not for your own benefit.

2. Give your wife breaks from her daily responsibilities.

3. Make memories.

4. Keep your vows sacred.  Sometimes better comes AFTER worse.

5. If you are not married, be careful in selecting a spouse.  It is one of the most important decisions you will ever make.

6. Be present with your family - emotionally and physically.

7. Be careful what you say and do.

8. Write notes to your children.

9. Honor those in authority over you.

10.  Be careful with the authority and influence that you've been entrusted with.

11.  If you can't come to grips with your parents and your past, find a professional to walk with you through it.
