Ask any 12 year old to explain this
and they probably can and will...
"You can't have ON THE INSIDE what doesn't
reveal itself on the outside."
WOW
Or put another way...
"Inside the oak tree is the ACORN."
"Inside the low tide sleeps the HIGH tide."
Profound....
yet so simple a concept that
when you HEAR it and
YOU actually get it...
Oh my!
Listen....
LIFE is not meant to be complicated...
it's just set up that way.
The 12 year old inside of you KNOWS this.
They believe they were meant for
GREAT things...
that the WORLD is their playground
and everything is gonna be OK.
The kid inside of YOU...
the man or woman that you are TODAY.
I remember when my son was growing up.
The times when I wanted to pull my
hair out in frustration.
The times when instead...
I thought about what it was like
when I was his age
Those times when the "drama" disappeared
and everything became PLAYFUL again.
I've learned a lot from the kid inside of me
AND from the one I brought into this world!
Let's face it...
We all have two or more personalities.
The negative side and the POSITIVE,
highly aware side...
plus that teenager that sees everything
with ROSE colored glasses.
Your challenge is to use the one that
has YOUR best intentions at heart
and to EMBRACE the kid inside of you.
Grab a copy of
Joe Schroeder's
"The Two Selves"
booklet
HERE
Take it to bed with you.
Read it to your kids :)
Ask good questions,
have conversations and
DOCUMENT the changes in your life.
I KNOW you'll be pleasantly surprised...
and maybe even a little stunned!
