It is no secret that if your financial situation is not in the position that you want it to be, one of the causes could be some family issues that go at home. And if you're going to take a look at what people are arguing about, you going to find a lot of small things that just covering the bigger, most of the time, money related problems. So how can someone be focused at work or business and make more money to solve these covered problems, when 1. The family is not willing to talk about it. 2. They are not on the same page.

Talk the small talk, and yes, no one wants to do it, but it is a must, don't let it stack up so one day you or your partner will blow up over some minor issues. And sit down with your partner to reevaluate your current situation and decide what are your money goals and how fast you want to reach them, make sure that your targets are not just broad, like "I want to buy this house in the future", so numbers have to take part of this equation, because only then you can calculate and measure, how many hours a day or days a week you need to work, maybe you will even need to start your own business on the side because it is not realistic for you to buy the house on your current income, you will know how long, you will know how much you need to get saved, how much time realistically it will take for you to buy it, how much money specifically you will need to maintain it, so you need a specific number that you will track down to your current situation and evaluate your time and effort purchasing it.

Always make sure that you are on the same page while reaching these targets, support each other, value each other, bring the best out of each other, narrow down the distractions and increase your actions. The best way to limit distractions is to increase your actions, the more you get obsessed with the idea of improving your family situation the lesser you will be exposed to distractions, know that empty space on the calendar is when the problems start to show up, so stay busy. Focus on the positive and abandon the negative, there is no value in it.
