You are a good man, Eric and it does not surprise me in the slightest that you’re kids are growing up to be positive, free thinking individuals. You’re a great role model. I think what you’ve taught them is one of the most valuable lessons in life.

I am very proud of all of my kids (yikes 5 combined with Pamela’s) and I am also realistic. I know that I could have done so much better as a parent in preparing them (particularly the older ones are on my mind right now) for their lives ahead. But the one thing that I really feel great about is that I do believe they are independent thinkers. For the most part they are not SHEEP. I think as a parent this is so important to try to instill in your kids, its something that I think you CAN impact, and you CAN pass along. To think for themselves. To be less concerned about what everyone else things, and more concerned about what is right, and what is right for them.

As a parent you have to recognize that you are not going to win all the battles, and its so important to choose the ones that can have a lasting impact.

Your grandpa was a wise man…..and you’re following right along in his footsteps. I think this is one time when you don’t have to be careful of following another man’s tracks. Thanks, Joel.

Reading Scenario #1, My reaction would have been to think I was in the wrong office and ask why everyone is sitting around in their underwear. Scenario #2, I would have simply faced the doors. One of my favorite feelings in the world is making fresh tracks. My grandpa once said, “Be careful of another man’s tracks, what if he is an idiot”. He taught me to arm myself with education, common sense and the courage to take the lead. He also taught me to be gracious and not take more than I need. When my life seemed to be spiraling out of control I realized I let go these simple lessons and bits of wisdom. Now, those are the words I live by. It’s not an easy road, but the view is awesome. We invite what we project, law of attraction, no way around it, and that includes our culture.

Nice article Darryl, any day of the week…

I actually remember that TV show. It interesting to see how to were able to take what was done in that show and spin it like this. You have made me look at it differently and that is a good thing. I liked today’s post.
