More Than You Think

Better get started!

Be A Cheerleader For Your Spouse
If nothing else, this is a minimum. Always say the best things to them to support them. Encourage them. Help them shine.
Tell your kids about their greatness. Remind your friends of their better side and all the good things.
This is what our partners need and what we need in return.
The more you do this, the more you’ll realise what a wonderful person you have and how lucky you are. The opposite is also true.
It’s the same person but the more you appreciate them, the better they seem. And vice versa. Your choice.
After many years, the outcome of those choices can be very different.

Keep Calm And Knock Firmly
This is what you do when you are accidentally locked out of your own house. Long story, but after an extra long day of work, I arrived home in the wee hours and could not get in.
I was texting, calling, FaceTiming, WhatsApp-ing, knocking and a variety of other things. Note to self, doorbell needs new batteries!
After 30 minutes, with my patience waning, and the cold was locked into my hands and feet, and moving higher, I tried one last firm knocking beat on the front window…
With no discernible difference inside, I turned to go sleep in the car or find a hotel room for the remainder of the night. But then voilá. My lovely wife appeared at the door and sweetly let me in.
Keep calm and knock firmly saves the day!

Occasionally, Turboboost!
Sometimes you need to go very fast or stay extra late. It might be to get work done before a holiday, or finish your project or university application. Regardless of what it is for, occasionally you need to go all out and blast through things with crazy intent.
You can always catch up on sleep once the storm has passed.

Chat More
Chat more with friends and families. You will learn a lot and everyone should get closer. Take the time to make these conversations happen. You’ll be glad you did as the relationships grow.

What Are You For?
Knowing what you don’t like is easy. It’s a bit lazy and also garners some “cool” attribute. Bring a hater or “Can’t be Bothered” type gives off a too cool for school vibe. But does it get you anywhere?
It takes effort to think through what you are for, what you like or what you love. You also have to be able to accept the criticisms that will come your way for supporting something others don’t, don’t like or demean.
To become successful and a decent person, you should focus on what you are for.
