Benjamin Watson: Super Bowl Champion To Keeping Up With 7 Kids And Living In The Midst Of “Cha-Order” (Chaos & Order)


Listen Later

In this episode, Rich and Benjamin discuss: 

  • Spending quality time with your kids
  • The importance of setting expectations for sleep
  • The value of traveling sports
  • Staying connected to your husband/wife


Key Takeaways: 

  • With parenting, you need to be present while you're there. Make sure you spend quality time with your kids - this can simply be asking questions about their day, sharing how your day is going as well, and finding out what your kids enjoy doing.
  • When you have a bunch of little kids and you let them stay up until whenever they want to go to sleep, do not be surprised that they cannot get anything done the next day or you won't have any time for the mommy-daddy relationship. Make sure they go to sleep at a consistent time while they’re still young.
  • A traveling sport can be a great way for your kids to stay in shape, but it also teaches them camaraderie, how to overcome obstacles, how to win and accept defeat, how to set goals, how to respect authority, and how to build relationships.
  • Make date nights with your spouse a habit. Marriage can be challenging, but it is rewarding, especially if your lines of communication are open.


“Relationships are difficult at times, but they are awesome at times too when they're done as right with the right people, in the right order, and in the right season of our life.” — Benjamin Watson
