Anger, Laziness, Distraction, Selfishness, and Passivity are all the arch nemesis of growth. Being a dad has forced me to become a better human. I was well on my way to becoming numb and complacent to troubling issues with my wife and kid. The ol "this too shall pass" mindset was beginning to sabotage my brain.
The mind is a very powerful muscle. It takes a concentrated effort to train a muscle to act and recover the way we expect it perform. The more you know, the more you practice, the better you become.
#1 on the list ANGER! Be aware of triggers, situations, repetitive frustrations, ask yourself what is making you uncomfortable? There are a lot of resources out there that will try and help you understand the way you feel.
Respect yourself and your efforts. You can do it!
Most of the enemies we face are within our own control. All Pro Dad shares how they take us away from what makes a great dad.
