Values Must Be Taught

Parent’s need to step up to the plate and get in the game and stop being spectators in the lives of their children they so willingly brought into the world. Values must be taught. You don’t just get to have kids and hope for the best. “Treat others the way you wish to be treated”. This golden rule is important to every relationship they will ever have, and it’s taught in the home. As the old saying goes, “The apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree.” Some parents don’t even try to teach manners or respect or good hygiene. That’s your job. Am I The Only One? Kids seem to able to manipulate and lay around a lot more than we could. A wise man once said to me, “kids that get on the couch stay on the couch.” Kids without discipline and direction don’t go anywhere.

Yours Truly, a Poem

Tell 5 stories, tell them everyday and you will be a master at work life and play Tell them to your neighbour, Tell them to your friend Be sure to tell them to yourself over and over again The stories are about you, what matters to you most The essence of who you really are,the elements that you toast. Anchor yourself in wisdom and what is true for you, Creates harmony and balance, it’s all you need to do.  Establish deep connections and all the flow you need, To harness personal power by planting all the seeds.  Remind yourself of stories and believing what you say, Helps you feel more powerful even on a stressful day.  True identity will never leave you, it’s there until the end So stay in touch with who you are and remind yourself again. The values you’ve excelled at,the accomplishments you’ve made,  Will only serve to help you when confidence begins to fade. To feel more personally powerful it all comes down to this, What are your core ...

Values - Sense of Accomplishment

I believe that Values are very important and that when you are honouring them in your life everything is good. When you are not honouring them, you will feel out of whack and upset. For example, if one of the most important things to you is being the best parent you can be and you are working out of town 5 days a week you are going to feel frustrated. If one of your values is to be able to speak your mind and you aren't speaking your mind, you will feel imbalanced. One of my values is to experience as much Joy as humanly possible everyday. If I go a couple of days without feeling joy in my life, I start to become anxious. What matters to you? what are your values? Our values give shape and definition to our life. They aren't universal answers. They're different for everyone. Here are 5 questions to help you discover yours. 1. what is important to me about life? 2. What is important to me about living? 3. what legacy do I want to leave behind when I go? 4...
