It's okay sometimes for your kids to be disappointed. I’m talking about this morning is that when the kids get older and they get out there's gonna be an an area of disappointment that they're going to experience and if they don't experience some level of disappointment today they're not going to be able handle it as adults.
I just want to tell you parents don't beat yourself up today. If there's things that you can't do for your kids and I really see this a lot in in guys that our coach today that have done very very well financially and they think well because I've done well financially I've got to give my kid everything that they want. That is not true! I can just tell you right now that is not true! I want you to give your kids the things that you think that they need and things that they don't need, don't give it to them. I don't care how much money you've got because you're not doing yourself or the kid any favor whatsoever and giving them everything that they want, that's just not reality. That's not what life is going to do for them long term. If you don't teach them to deal with disappointment today, they won't be able to deal with
disappointment as an adult.

You know what's happening in our lives today? There are indicator lights all around us. There are warning light going on. And more often than not, we do not attend to this warnings. We just ignore them! Like, there are some areas in our lives that we can hope all we want but until we deal with it it is not going away. I'd like to encourage you to deal with those kind of situations - there are indicator lights and I'd like you to pay attention!

There is no silver bullet to success. It takes time. It takes patience. You have to invest in people, in relationships before you can even expect for anything in return.

I just want you today to think through learn to ask better questions. We always want to be people of integrity it's always difficult sometimes especially when you're ox is in the ditch when you're the one that's gonna maybe suffer the consequences as a result of what you share and what you tell.
Let me just encourage you a little bit in your business. Be savvy and don't be just blind to the the things that matters at hand and I just want you to ask better questions - “Is there anything else that could impact my decision?” I want to encourage you as a dad, as a husband, as a small business owner, don't leave out important information that could radically impact the lives of other people. You might say, “Well they didn't ask that question and so I didn't tell. Well, I don't know how you feel about that but personally the way I feel about that is the lack of information, an important decision, is the same as telling a lie because it's going to radically impact the way I might vote or the way I might respond or behave to a particular circumstance or situation.

I kept thinking about something this morning that I think is very important. Let’s practice to find balance with our time with ourselves and with our family. I’d like to encourage you guys to sit down with your spouse and talk about things that you’d like to do alone/personally - to take care of yourself. I’d like to encourage you as well not to be selfish and spend so much time with yourself and forget to give some time to your spouse, to your family. I think that when we take so much time with ourselves at the expense of our families we are really jeopardizing our relationships and the things that matter most. So, there is a happy balance, there is a place that you can get to that you can take care of your family and take care of yourself.
