Studies show that kids who play without boundaries act out and don’t thrive compared to kids who are given rules and boundaries for play. Parents are typically well aware of this and make adjustments quickly to help their kids thrive, but somewhere along the lines, we believe we outgrow boundaries as soon as nobody can set them for us. The reality is that we aren’t that much different from kids. Habits and routines are boundaries that help us function better; while time limits, excluding toxic people, and work-life balance are boundaries crucial to survival.

Have you ever thought about what you think about? A lot of us go throughout our day without a conscious reflection of the thoughts that occupy much of our time and energy. The reality is that the thoughts we focus on end up dictating our actions and emotions, and we have the power to decide what thoughts will take root. If we want to live a more intentional and optimistic life, being conscious of and intentional about our thoughts can make a huge difference.

2020 has been a crazy year, but there are some key takeaways that can help us as we head into the future. We have all made significant adjustments, and some of us have even made beneficial adjustments specific to our mental health, learning how to adjust to work and school at home, and so much more. Through these struggles, the changes may seem overwhelming at times, but shift our perspective and taking it one day at a time allows us to extend grace to those around us and restart new each morning.

In Michigan, locals love to visit and enjoy the beauty of the many lighthouses around the various Great Lakes. Lighthouses themselves are cool and the places they mark are often beautiful. Yet rarely do we realize that lighthouses are often placed at the spots of previous wrecks. Without the wrecks, there would be no lighthouses.

A “coaching” approach to management is a new philosophy that focuses more on asking questions than it does having all the answers. Typically, we have focused on knowing all and doing all rather than learning more. Curiosity, questions, and learning seem to be more important to seeking meaningful life experiences than knowing everything. In fact, it’s better to ask ALL the questions than it is to know ALL the things.

We each have those few movies that we watch over and over again, and after a while, we have all the major lines, songs, or moments memorized to the point that we can lose sight of what the movie is all about… i.e; the Disney movie Frozen. It’s usually not until we look at the movie from a fresh perspective that things seem to click and we understand something new about the film.

Almost all of us can admit that we like control in one way or another. However, there's a paradox of control which we are mostly unaware of in our daily lives. Too much control for a guaranteed outcome leaves us unsatisfied in the accomplishment. Too little control leaves us feeling helpless and gives us cause to give up. Yet, there are many valuable life decisions and experiences that we miss out on because we don’t have control over the outcome or we fear the outcome will be undesirable.

If we try too many things at once, we end up failing at all of them. We all have limitations: time, skills, energy, finances, etc. If we can admit to these limitations we can be better equipped to draw more accurate conclusions about them rather than believing the lies that we just aren’t good enough.

Now that social media and other digital connections are so prevalent, many of us find ourselves more connected with less meaning. So much so that when we see real people with whom we have a digital relationship, we struggle to know how to act or what to talk about. Watch our latest video to learn more!

We often look for the most expedient way to receive or achieve meaningful things. The issue is unlike Amazon and GrubHub, real meaning cannot be bought and delivered to our doorstep.  Meaning comes from experience and often overcoming.
