It’s been a while since my last blog. That doesn’t mean I gave up, it means just life gets in the way sometimes. Recently, I realized something that I’ve been doing. During my “world’s ugliest divorce” three years ago, I created a list of the way I wanted to live my life (because up until that point, I was on the wrong path in a few too many ways). I’m not going to bore you with that list, but there was one thing on the list I actually caught myself doing … maybe subconsciously.
One thing on my list and one of my favorite quotes I added to my Facebook profile three years ago was “Act is if my kids are watching”.
I can’t recall what I was doing a few weeks ago, but I stopped in my tracks and thought to myself, what would my kids think. It helped me make the better decision and then I kind of smiled to myself feeling I’d have made them proud if they were watching.
This blog is not to pat myself on the back, but to challenge you to try the same motto/mantra … “Act as if my kids are watching”. You may catch yourself doing something fun, funny or crazy … or just making a better decision when challenged.
