I'm just a regular British guy who, like many of my generation, was swept along from school to college to career by a conveyor belt of other people's expectations.
At the age of 33 I suddenly realised my life wasn't one I had chosen; I had simply gone along with the enthusiasms of my teachers and family who genuinely thought they knew what was best for me. I realised I was working too hard in the corporate 'rat race' to have a real life of my own.
In 2012 I attended a wealth creation seminar in London that completely changed my way of thinking about life. I realised the most important thing is not money but freedom of time; to do all the things which make you happy. Above all, I discovered how it is possible for anyone to achieve a life of total time freedom by setting clearly defined goals and taking action.
I came to the conclusion that life goes too fast and what we really only have are memories. Precious memories with the people we love. But if we're too busy working, surviving, they'll be no time left to create those moments. They'll be lost forever.
I also realised that many of my friends, most of whom had become Dads, were falling farther and farther away from the lifestyle they had always wanted for themselves and their families. This marked a turning point for me. I made it my mission to raise awareness of what I had learned in order to help Dads from all walks of life, all backgrounds and all interests achieve total fulfilment and abundance for their families.
In January 2013 I founded the 'moretimefordads' website to release the first of a series of eBooks aimed at helping my friends and other hard working Dads find more time to share with their families and re-connect with their own passions and dreams.
You might have heard some people say ‘you don’t know what you’ve got until you lose it’, well maybe it’s also true that we don’t know what we’ve been MISSING until it arrives.
