I believe the greatest gift you can give your kids is a calm home. It’s not the big house or the best toys that stick with them. It’s a place where they feel safe. Where mistakes are met with patience. Where voices stay low. Where hard conversations are always followed by repair. Kids absorb everything. Create peace and they'll carry it for life.

Metacognition is the highest form of intelligence 🧠
Metacognition is the ability to think about your own thinking. It allows you to recognize your thought patterns, question your beliefs, understand your emotions, and reflect on how you make decisions.
People with strong metacognitive skills are better able to recognize their mistakes, adjust their behavior, and learn from experiences. While it's often considered an important part of intelligence, metacognition goes beyond simply knowing information. It's about understanding how your mind works and using that awareness to make better choices.

Jerry Seinfeld says worrying about your problems is a complete waste of time and brainpower
"One of his number one things is: if you can’t control it, don’t bother thinking about it"
"Somebody gave me this book a couple years ago, Meditations, which has nothing to do with meditation. This is just stuff he jotted down when he was Emperor of Rome, 150 AD. It's the most brilliant philosophical looking at life"
"You’re taking energy, your brain, away from things you can control. You can control your act"
"On the night of the show, whatever didn’t sell or whatever the problems are, the sound, you’re tired... it’s a waste of time. There’s no point in thinking too much about it"
"Your success in life: think about what I can do today that’s important for me in my life. That’s where you should be focusing. That’s Marcus Aurelius"

There is still hope! Keep loving the game. Keep pouring into the youth!

STOP ASKING YOUR SON "HOW WAS SCHOOL."
He will say "fine" every single time.
A child psychologist told me to replace it with one of these 4 instead:
