Episode notes

Pushing back the token system put the decision making more in their hands, where they had to think about the trade offs involved themselves. The rules were set up and the kids understood them, so you just had to refer back to that. So that took off a lot of stress and strain around trying to manage screen time. And i'd say this was one of the things that got that culture to begin to be part of our family culture, a culture of reading.

If your life is anything like mine, you probably have far more problems than you can solve in one day. It’s easy to become overwhelmed.

When this happens, it is often our most important relationships that suffer.

But the good news is there is a solution. Taking just a few moments to celebrate small wins, especially with those that matter most, can change the equation in your favor.

In this episode, my wife Anna and I explore concrete ways you can reinforce good behavior at home, avoiding the temptation only to see what someone is doing wrong, and how to use microbursts of effort to improve your relationships.
