We can’t out run stress. It’s simply a fact of our daily lives. The idea that we “eliminate” stress from our life sounds great, but that means cutting out the parts that are most meaningful. Think about it: the parts of our lives that make us who we really are come from areas that bring stress: our work, our kids, our significant others. These aren’t “bad” stressors, but they are part of our lives. It’s not a matter of cutting these areas out, but a matter of how we handle them.
Optimal anger management as fathers must have been a much needed episode, because this past week Shawn and I launched Episode 58 – Five Ways to Control our Tempers as Dads. The reason I say it must have been much needed is because it was one of our fastest downloaded shows to date. We had more downloads by 10am then we usually get for the entire day on Mondays.
Being a dad is one of the most rewarding aspects of our lives, but it’s also a tough business. At times our patience can be tested in ways we didn’t even know possible. At times we react in ways we didn’t even think we were capable of. It’s in those dark times, we feel defeated overwhelmed, and have a sense we are failing at this whole dad thing
Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul as well as a new book, 30 Day Sobriety Challenge, gives a fresh perspective on this sometimes difficult balance, “Every life has its benefits and costs and once you realize that, you get out of jealousy and resentment.” So, maybe you didn’t have the best childhood, or maybe you grew up with every privilege under the sun. It really doesn’t matter. It’s really all about how you come out of the situation and how you respond to the situations you’ve been through. Through this, you provide your children with the ultimate example of resiliency and success.
