Episodes

Flashy Isn't Great
Rather than focus on the big, flashy moments to find greatness, we should focus on the million little things that lead to something great.

Judging Others
Judging a person does not define who they are. It defines who you are.

Why are we so angry? Gratitude is going to carry us further than anger.

Hammer and Nails
Our parent toolbox must have more than just a hammer. If we only have a hammer in our repertoire, then everything will look like a nail.

Open-minded
As a preview to Chapter 2 of 'The Dad Notes Project,' this is an except from my book, 'Lucky Enough' which is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Credit
Not everyone will notice what you do. Life isn’t one big participation trophy. Never stop doing your best because someone doesn’t notice or give you credit.

Expectation
How many times has resentment crept into your life after someone didn't live up to your expectations?

Life Backwards

Your Story

We are all emotional creatures, but we can control how our emotions cloud our decision-making.
