Doing what is best for yourself in life is often a difficult thing to do. Looking after your own needs is often seen as selfish by other people.

Having the courage to put yourself first is never easy to achieve.

Becoming a Dad doesn't come with an instruction manual. For most men it's about learning on the job. The challenge of being a Dad is all about understanding how to balance the needs of family, work, as well as themselves.
