What a child of can teach us

We use a decent amount of fresh-cut wildflowers in our home. No longer are dead wildflower blooms thrown in the trash. Now, they all get to continue their purpose by being released back into the wild.

What a child of can teach us is close to infinite.

Imagine the unbiased life outlook a child has, untouched by the burdens of self-care and personal responsibility.

If we could manage our adult responsibility and maintain an untarnished view of our world…what is possible may seem more possible.

Son, thank you for this gift – one of dozens in which you’ve changed my habits.

What does humanity gain by not changing?

Disney Keynote Speakers
University of Iowa, a few years ago. Invited back again and again because of the ability to help them .think .differently

Most people need love and acceptance a lot more than they need advice. – Bob Goff

Read this on LinkedIn yesterday.

It stopped me.

i thought for a few minutes and then had to type this train of thought…

i agree with Bob.

But betting i differ on where “most people” would find enough generous love and acceptance.

In the mirror.

Love and acceptance is an inside job.

The Internet (or a library) offers unlimited learning. Somewhere along human evolution, we’ve neglected teaching our youth the power of the growth mindset and personal accountability for our mind, body, spirit, work, and home.

We shun this opportunity during public and private education.

And thus send generation after generation into adulthood, and parenting, only to perpetuate our current reality.

We may assume that we, ourselves, have also been sent into adulthood unprepared, because our parents were sent out unprepared.

As a misfit, i’m simply a dad that recognizes the much is and decided to break the chain.

In a perfect world, Son, you will be much better at this than i have been.

The rewards are worth the (tireless) effort

Have heard rave reviews from Faculty about Tim. This is next week’s speaker benchmark opportunity; however, this one is a parents only event.

 

Prepping for adulthood can be draining and it can also be the opposite of draining.

Moving from adult-child mindset to adult-adult mindset.

The rewards are worth the (tireless) effort.

Best spiritual year ever mindset in 2018?

Even without cameras, we are being watched and judged. Photo: Yesterday, installed two more cameras. Like Walt Disney World, outside cameras are everywhere.

 

Best spiritual year ever mindset in 2018?

If you are part of a spiritual community, think about the opportunities to serve and be served.

If you are not part of a spiritual community, think about the missed opportunities to serve and be served.

Does it get any clearer than that?
