**SPOILER ALERT: Don’t listen to this episode with your kids in the car!**

Santa Claus has been around for generations. As adults, we think of Christmas as a time for kids to get excited over presents and visits with Santa. We want to make it a magical time for them and tend to go overboard with the gifts, lights, and festivities. Some parents use Santa Claus as a way to keep their kids in line. After all, Santa knows who’s been naughty or nice. If children are good, they’ll get the presents they want. If they’re naughty, they risk receiving coal in their stocking or, in some cultures, being beaten with a stick. 

But what about our own Christmas experiences? How have they shaped us as adults?

In this episode, BT and I discuss how the Santa Claus mythos could be detrimental to developing a successful mind.

You’ll learn:

In my company, we teach the law of cause and effect, and how diligent work (not luck or wishful thinking) gets you the desired outcome. While we all have good intentions to celebrate Christmas in the same old ways, we must be honest about the long-term effects those traditions have. We should critically reflect on our own experiences that we had as children around Santa.

However you choose to celebrate, we wish you all a Merry Christmas!
