Thank you for all of the responses, fellas. Most of what I take from the comments is what I guess I already knew. My wife and family relationships should always come first. The irony of this is that my greatest strength as a coach is that I've fostered meaningful relationships with the kids I've coached. But, for some reason, my relationships at home haven't been what they should be. I've never understood why its natural to take those relationships for granted. It’s just weird that we can recognize the issue and still do nothing to fix it. My biggest fear is reverting back to my modus operandi. Hopefully reading these comments will be a reminder that I can revert to if things go awry. Also want to say that I appreciate the raw candor of sharing your own experiences with me.
