Make Time for What Matters–Jon Acuff’s Lesson Learned
Sitting at the Blissdom conference in Nashville, Jon Acuff hit me between the eyes. Not literally, but it hurt just the same.
He talked about a few things that hit home, but the one that felt most like a heart attack was his reminder to make time for things that matter.
He told us a story about how he was sitting with his daughter, working on her homework, while he was trying to come up with a funny tweet. He told her to hold on a minute, a few times, and she put a napkin over his iPhone.
He shared that with us during his speech.
It says “Daddy pay attention”.
My daughter isn’t the one who wrote it but she could have been.
All my kids could have.
I need to change that. Now.
What an important reminder Jon.
Message received. And thank you!

Blissdom sounds like a great place to learn
