Welcome to the Daily Dad podcast where we provide one lesson every single day to help you with your most important job, being a parent. I'm Ryan Holiday, and I draw these lessons from

ancient philosophy, modern psychology, practical wisdom, and insights from parents just like you

all over the world. Thank you for listening, and we hope this helps. You know, it's funny, sometimes, like, the perfect thing comes up as part of doing this podcast that I was looking for, but I didn't actually know there was a thing for it. I've been trying to take my boys and my father-in-law on a fishing trip. We have a pond on a ranch that we fish in, but we've never, like, gone out in the ocean. We've never done it on the river. We go down to Florida a couple times a year, and I've wanted to take them out near Pensacola or Destin to go fishing out on the ocean. And I honestly, part of the reason I hadn't done it was that it seemed hard to do. And that's actually where today's sponsor comes in, Fishing Booker. It's the world's

largest platform for booking fishing trips. But really, you could say it's just about making

family time or outdoor time or stillness time simple. With Fishing Booker, you can compare prices,

read verified reviews, and even message the captain before you book so you know exactly what to

expect. With just a few clicks, you're closer to the day that you keep saying you'll plan

someday, which is exactly where I was. So as the year winds down, maybe give your family the gift

of time together, visit fissionbooker.com and make that moment happen.

It's not how it looks.

Sure, everything in your home could be spotless.

Everything could be nicely maintained, regularly cleaned, and so well-organized that clutter never sees the light of day.

But given everything you have on your plate right now,

given everything that you have to get right when you have kids,

is that really what's important?

Or is what really matters how your home feels?
