EP 98- Jeff Brekken: Questions You Should Ask Your Parents
The parent-child relationship and experience vary from person to person. You could talk to one person and they absolutely adore their parents. Ask another person, and their experience would leave you believing they were raised by the spawn of Satan.
No matter your upbringing, and no matter your experience, if possible, it's important to ask your parents a few important questions.
The answers to these questions will remove any doubt, inconsistencies, hearsay, and rumors you may have believed throughout your entire life.
Imagine if future generations didn't have to rely on hearsay or stories passed down from generation to generation. As you may have experienced, it's always best to go to the source for the truth or the closest thing to it. The stories would be a reliable depiction of who the members of your family, are, and would probably add some color commentary as they were experienced in real-time.
In this episode, Jeff shares some of the questions he asked his parents like:
- What was the best advice you received?
- What questions do you wish you could've asked your parents?
- Biggest regret?
- How was your experience as a parent?
- When did you have your first drink?
- Where was your first school?
Now, let's go one step further. With the cost-effective and easily accessible forms of documenting these stories through videos, photos, writing, and publishing, you have the ability to leave a roadmap for future generations with stories of a distant time, the logic deployed at that time, social attitudes, and insights better shared from the source than speculation.
This episode will be one for the books and give you some perspective to take an active role in living your life on purpose.
And it won't be long before your children have it in their minds to ask you the same questions.
This episode will prepare you for all of it!
