F. Scott Fitzgerald's timeless advice to his daughter on what to worry about and what not to worry about, emphasizing courage, cleanliness, efficiency, and horsemanship.
"F Scott Fitzgerald wasn’t always the best father, but as one of the most brilliant writers and thinkers of his time, he certainly knew how to express fatherly advice perfectly in words. One of the best letters he ever wrote is to his daughter Frances while she was away at camp, where he discussed the anxieties and worries that all young people feel. Some things were worth worrying about, he said, and some weren’t. So he gave her a list."
Ryan talks about the list Fitzgerald sent to his daughter, and its timeless message for parents anywhere, on today's Daily Dad Podcast.
