- Your most valuable asset is time, especially as you get older. Use it wisely.
- People will view your personal challenge or hard time as an opportunity to benefit and push their interests.

1) Your kids will become who you say they are.

2) never trust your feelings after 9pm

3) listen to understand not to win

When it comes to big expensive material things, wanting and wishing for it is almost aways more fun than actually having it. I've used it before on here. I am trying to teach it to my kids, but I think maybe this is one that you may have to live it before you really understand.


Reminds me of another good one — knowing you can have something is just as good as having it. I’ve found this one incredibly true for me in many instances.

Sex is very expensive

Honor and Integrity are just about the two most important character traits and they can't be bought.

Learn the difference between needs and wants.

Another spin on that same idea:

"Not wanting something is better than actually having it."

Are you starting one of those feel-good churches?


If so I’ll go if we work in moderate drinking and a minimal level of sports fannery.

Alcohol is the root cause of the vast majority of personal problems.

Meritocracy does not exist.
