When the student is mentally ready

Digital learning (and teaching) gets easier and more significant every year. Photo: iPhone XS screen.

When the student is ready the teacher will appear.

Are you ready?

This is classic wisdom:

“You can’t control what happens to you, only how you respond.”

My five daily, differently-themed blog posts all carry this wise approach to life.

We think (MidLifeCelebration.com).

We move (Lane8.org).

We feel (JeffNoel.org).

We work (JungleJeff.net).

We dwell (JeffNoel.com).

When, or if, you feel ready, you have thousands (17.5k as of today) of posts to stimulate your learning.

Should we gamble or invest in our future?

Should we gamble or invest in our future?

Learn to be intentional where you used to be unintentional.

Intenionality requires new habits.

New habits are challenging.

But not as challenging as winning a big jackpot (or the lottery).

Which do you choose to feed?

Which do you choose to feed?

The wolf of pessimism?

The wolf of optimism?

Each leads somewhere.

You have to decide which journey will excite you.

Learning to be what you’re not

Inspirational quote — Great scripts are only written – and read – by the willing.

When we can’t be what we want to be, we learn to be what we’re not.

Please be careful with the scripts you read to yourself (over and over).

The wrong script changes everything.

The good news?

The right script also changes everything.

Dear Son, passing the trust torch to you

Dear Son, passing the trust-torch to you.

Two nights ago when i said i trust you to self-monitor your nightly hour of video games – and that you will face temptation when parental oversight lessens…remember?

From the time you began to talk as a one-year-old we have prioritized trust as the number one relationship asset.

What hit me as i was falling asleep was this:

You must have a powerfully trusting relationship with yourself.

As you mature and approach 18, you will be in charge of your choices.

Choices, my Son, are everything.

Trust yourself to make great choices.

Trust yourself to learn from poor choices.

And remember that a poor choice can simply be to not make one because of fear, doubt, and uncertainty.

You must trust yourself more than anyone else in the world.

Note: Risks for personal growth are healthy. Risks for pleasure are unhealthy. Self-control follows trust and personal responsibility.
