    This is way more than a film maker tip….this is a life tip. No matter what you do in life…this was so motivational, inspiring, and probably the most educational video you ever made. I feel a lot of KZread channels about film making, music production, or whatever industry you indulge in that kinda doesn’t sleep…..no one has ever made a video like this one

    Great tips. I always try to balance between my work as a teacher knowing teachers have always something to do and work at home. Photography... it's my hobby that I'm working on improving my skills as it could be my part-time job Time for the kids and family. Helping the kids with their studies and taking them out to have fun. Time for me when I go hiking to self-recharge

    Honestly, hands down you’re one of my bigger inspirations… and one of the few KZreadrs I trust. This topic is important. Backstory, I’m a veteran and a father of two. I’ve tried starting my own business and paid another KZreadr $10k for a program they sold. It was a rip off….. it was a tough learning curve. But, I bought your course. I actually made my money back. Thanks for actually keeping it real. Now I’m at a point where work life balance is my focus. Keep up the good work

    These are all valid points. I've owned a brick and mortar retail business for a decade, then transitioned to full-time ministry for more than a decade, and now building an additional photo and video business (while married with three kids) and the best seasons of balance have been when there was an intentional plan. Without a balanced plan to implement, I would always default to an imbalanced schedule. And it's not a one-time plan, its an ongoing recalibration as we enter from one season to the next. I'm thankful for helpful, practical videos like this, Parker.

    Yeah, I do a lot of different types of gigs filming, editing, animation, video engineer for some studios so it’s hard for me to really nail down a schedule. On a good day I get off at five or earlier but right now I’m going off of three weeks of working till 10 or 11. I have a wife and two girls and if I know that I’m going to work late I at least takeoff an hour to help put the kids down if it’s a day that I’m working from home.

    Parker, thank you for showing us all that it’s not as easy as you make it look! I put photography and videography aside for personal reasons a long time ago and got back into it way too late… with 1 kid and another on the way! Now with both of them I struggle to make time for it and often I’m afraid to give quotes because I don’t want to overbook myself! I’ve gotten better after some trial and error but I guess it just takes time and recognizing where and how you can improve

    Thanks for this Parker. Just keep rollin with the chaos. For an LDS reference, I recall a conference talk from a number of years ago (Pres Packer I think) where he mentioned that you're not always going to have silence in your life to read scriptures and do other things. You just have to learn to work with a little noise.

Not perfect and never will be, but this video made me realize and reflect on my situation. Funny enough, my wife told me the same comments about communicating better and being fully there when needed/required. Good show

We are missionaries in Madagascar and we run a mission school for the Malagasy people that we just opened. This really unbalanced my personal life and my family life. That’s why I was interested in this video. So you see, exactly like your pastor said we need to find thouse few important plates that need to be spinning all the time . Good illustration, good tips and thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. Florin, missionary in Madagascar with AG Madagascar church 🙌🙏🤗
