May 15, 2018 7 Parenting Strategies I Learned From Fighting
Recently I had my first fight. Like a real fight. Like two guys in the ring duking it out. Yeah, it was as crazy as that sounded.
I’m 39, run my own freelancer business, I’m a part-time stay-at-home dad (with four kids), enrolled in seminary for my master’s degree, and decided to train, and fight. What was I thinking???
I started this journey because I felt, looked, and let’s be honest, was fat/overweight/chubby.
A few reasons:
Lose weight
Bucket list
Show my kiddos that dad still has “it”

First the definition of resilience. the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness.
I think ‘grit’ is a probably a better word. Just sounds cool, and easier to spell and pronounce.
I asked our therapist this question. He said ‘good question, let me get back to you’. The next time I saw him he gave me this article on resilience. Basically what the article said is that resilience skips a generation.
