Wow. What you can learn in one day is astounding. Here are a few things I’ve learned:
- I cause my own unhappiness
- Being in the room is not the same as being present
- Laughter is so much better than anger
- Empathy is a skill that can change your life
- I can do better
- The stories I write in my head are almost never true
- Being determined is worthless without a plan
- Small reminders can make a big impact
- Deep breaths can stop liquid hot magma
- My boys won’t always need me in the middle of the night and I need to embrace these moments.
- My days are not infinite and therefore every single one is precious
- Let everything go. Just let it go. All that matters is who I show up as every single moment
Goals for 2020:
- Strengthen my empathy muscles
- Be flexible and adaptable
- Make my kids and wife know without a doubt they are my number ones
- Approach each situation with love first
- Stop assuming the worst
- Laugh so fricking much more
There’s probably some more but that’s all I’ve got for now.
What’s your 2020 all about? There will never be another 2020 so don’t waste it.
