Things I want you to know


  • Your mom loves you more than you will ever know. Always love her back and appreciate everything she does for you and even things you don’t know she does for you.
  • Your friends will come and go, but your family will always be here for you.
  • Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. Anything is possible if you work hard enough.
  • Life won’t always be easy. You have to fight through the hard times and really cherish the good times.
  • Always be a young kid inside!
  • Debt is bad. We are doing what we can so you don’t have to, but never ever borrow money (except for a mortgage on a house.)
  • Appreciate the little things in life.
  • Be present in the moment.
  • Enjoy everyday like it’s your last. We are never guaranteed another day.
  • Be curious!
  • Don’t ask “How was your day?”, but ask “What did you learn today?”
  • I want you to learn how to learn. The world is full of information and the knowledge is never ending.
  • Experiences are better than “things”
  • Be Good / Learn Lots / Have Fun / Do Your Best
  • Keep smiling! Smiling at people makes them smile. It’s contagious!
  • Treat everyone the same. Lower level people at your school or job matter just as much as the high level bosses.
  • You got this! You can do anything you put your mind too.
  • You can have a seat at any table you want!
