On this week’s episode, I answer a listener question on staying positive day in and day out.
We’ve talked about this a lot but I really believe that our thinking is the foundation of everything that we become.
Frankly, I’m not always positive.
A huge thing for me is to have a long view of time.
If you feel people are looking to you for everything, I would imagine it’s because you’ve been successful in the past at providing perspective about a situation that was true.
There are huge benefits to issues, problems, and failures. You are building a story.

On this week’s episode, I answer a listener question on the difference between discipline and punishment.
Before getting into that I have a quick story:
So, what is the difference between discipline and punishment?
You want to make sure that a child knows to obey now, and if they are outside the circle of discipline then there will be a punishment.

On this week’s episode, I discuss money and the influence it should have on your parenting style.
How does the amount of money you have (or don’t have) affect your parenting style?
Austin just turned 15, and he was aware at 10 years old that he would be buying his own car.
For a child to become a great adult, it’s easier to reach your potential if you have the confidence that you are capable of doing things yourself.
As far as parenting, I really believe that our quality time, and even our gifts, do NOT have to be about having money.

On this week’s episode, I give some advice to a family with two boys gifted in different ways, and I give suggestions on how the parents can help guide them to the right career paths.
My wife says I have been gifted with being able to remember every single thing I’ve ever seen or heard, and I do have one very odd gift that I will display on occasion.
Isn't it odd how the same parents can raise children the same way, but they still can turn out so different?
When it comes to picking a career path, take a breath.
For teens and young adults having trouble identifying the direction they want to go in, ask them these questions (if it won’t discourage them):
