Welcome to the rewire podcast.

I'm your host, Ryan Stumann,

and I'm here to rewire your mind for success.

You were put on this planet for success.

You were created to succeed,

but the force of average is after you every single day,

my brothers and sisters,

and this podcast is the one thing that's designed

to help you fight the force of average and excel in every

area of your life. We're glad that you're here. I'm going to ask all the time. Every podcast I do,

every event that I have, Ryan, how do you, how do you do work life balance? You seem to have such a good

wife and kids and you seem to have good relationships with your friend, but you seem like you work all the time too.

How do you balance that out?

And a great man that I've known for many years, Tim Grover once told me that balance is bullshit.

A scale is balanced at zero and nobody wants to be a zero and i've always taken that seriously i've

always thought that was a great analogy because if we've got to work eight or ten or twelve hour

days we're not going to be able to balance out every day with our family and go spend 12 hours

with our family if i work 12 hours like i did yesterday and i come home and i see my family for two hours i'm obviously not going to get 12 hours with our family. If I work 12 hours like I did yesterday and I come home and I see my family

for two hours, I'm obviously not going to get 12 hours with them too. So what I do is I have a very

clear system of how I can not balance, but how I can invest important time into the people that I

love. Number one is I do date night every Wednesday

with my wife for 10 years. It's not always been on Wednesday, but it is right now. Wednesday at 5.30
