I’ll be honest I just can’t find the motivation to do so. Even when I’m not so tired I feel guilty about leaving the kids to my wife etc and when I’m out I tend to rush back to support/take over. I know this is probably an issue with how I view this and not necessarily because I’m made to feel guilty.
Learn to acknowledge the guilt but not give into it. Do this by feeling the guilt, and postpone any action towards it. If only for a few seconds. Turn that second into minutes. Minutes into hours.
Your guilt is false. Your kids will be fine. Your wife will be fine.
Communicate with your wife that this is what you are going to do. And continually how it is going.
