In what ways do one or two events or experiences

High School author

In what ways do one or two events or experiences in your son’s development seem especially significant?

 

Publishing his first book as a High School Sophomore. Learning how to storyboard, organize, decide, and ship a book are skills many adults only dream of. His confidence grew exponentially.

Becoming a Shot Putter on the Track team. His dad forced him to do something with a group of people five days a week after school. So he wouldn’t have to run, he picked the shot put. The Track coach convinced him (a miracle) to join the Cross Country Team in the Fall. He had more reasons to quit than another other teammate but never did.

Bonus: Attending a Montessori School for a decade before High School. He learned to think for himself to solve complex and interesting challenges.

What do you want from life?

Are you sure?

Do your habits enable or inhibit progress?

How significantly does your attitude enable or inhibit?

Are you?

Because i said i would
Yesterday i watched Alan Sheen’s TED Talk. He’s leading a movement, “Because I said I would.”

 

Everyone’s going through a hell no one knows about.

Are you happy?

Are you joyful?

Are you grateful?

Who’s the most positive person you know?

Apple 4k TV
Arrived yesterday. Implement technology or don’t. There’s an outcome either way. Thanks for making a great decision.

 

i just asked myself…

How have you grown in the past 5 years?

What risks have you taken that paid off?

What risks have you taken that didn’t pay off?

What did you learn from both?

What risks are you willing to take today, this Summer, and before your 60th birthday?

PS. Change loves you and wants to be your mentor.
