Lack of Focus Makes You a Worse Parent
As you know I’ve never been a parent but my mom often complained about how she always had too much to do and not enough hours in the day to do it.
What this really boils down to is priorities and managing your self. Because we each have equal amount of hours in the day, 24 to be exact, and some people have their stuff together and are way more successful than others.
This is because of the way they choose to spend their time and the activities they choose to do with the time available to them.
This concept applies about parents as well as in business. I’m going to give you an example from a local business meet up group I organized and am the leader of. Read the rest of this entry »

Fun And Funny Christmas Songs
There are all types of Christmas songs. Some of the most popular categories are Christian Christmas songs, pop Christmas songs, and country Christmas songs. There are some songs in each category that are fun to sing or listen to with friends, family, or alone. Other than in the Christian Christmas songs category there are songs in the other categories that are meant to be funny.
There are some Christian Christmas songs that are real fun to sing or listen to with your family. Two of my favorites are “Go Tell It On The Mountain” (Go tell it on the mountain, Our Jesus Christ is born) and “Joy To The World” (Joy to the world! the Lord is come). Both songs relate to the birth of Jesus.
A couple of cute songs that most kids like are “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer” and “All I Want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth”. Some fun Christmas songs to sing with your family are “Deck the Halls”, “Jingle Bells”, and “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree”. It is fun to hear the kids yell while singing “Deck the Halls”.

Christmas, Bah-Humbug
No, I’m not a scrooge. Although, compared to some families’ Christmas shopping sprees, one may think so.
Our family instituted a new tradition three years ago that will save us big bucks this year for Christmas.
The new tradition came about when I stumbled upon a toy on the floor for the last time. Nearly breaking my neck, I realized that my children never really PLAYED with their toys. They would only strew them all over the house as if Toys R Us had exploded during Black Friday. Missing parts, broken pieces … I had had enough.
I sat my children down and explained to them that from now on they would only be receiving one gift for Christmas. Not one gift a piece but one gift to share between the three of them. By the look on their faces, you would have thought that I had just murdered Santa Clause. Read the rest of this entry »
