True

When we take time to “do life” with our children we teach them more than we could ever imagine. We don’t need extravagant experiences or expensive outings to make a difference in their lives. In fact, it’s just the opposite. It’s the little moments that make the biggest impact when you have them consistently. Let that sink in. Consistent “little moments” create the big picture. Let’s put down the electronics, get off work earlier and “do life” with our kiddos.

Words are so powerful. When you speak to your child you’re either building them up or breaking them down. Use words that build up their confidence and words that remind them how important and valued they are.

Sometimes saying nothing is more than saying everything. When we are constantly reacting to other people, places, things and ideas we lose. We lose our composure, we lose our grace, we lose our perspective, we lose our intentions, we lose our temper and we lose our power. In my book I provide a tool to help parents identify times they should not react or respond but rather, should H.A.L.T. When you are Hungry Angry, Lonely or Tired do not react or respond. Exercise self-care and inward reflection to gain perspective on what was truly triggered in you to cause the response. And when you’re fed, peaceful, rested and alert you can respond with intention. Only then will you own your power in the situation.

When we focus on the positive our world becomes positive.

Sometimes we make choices or refrain from making choices because we believe our current situation is safe(ish) or because we feel like we are in “control”. Sometimes we also make choices or refrain from making choices because we are in the fear zone. Or maybe someone has made a choice for us which puts us in the fear zone. The only way to move out of this state of being is to deal with the challenges before us. It’s not easy. It’s not comfortable. But it’s NECESSARY if you want to find a new purpose in your life. Trust me when I say, I’ve been there.
