What do families remember more: the dad who complained about commissary peanut butter—or the one who stayed grateful?
Description
In this episode I talk about family, because I saw the heartache and I also saw the hope in visitation, I lay out why complaining about peanut butter, mail call, alarms, and cold water does nothing at home while gratitude, studying, writing, preparing, and engaging in programs actually changes how your family experiences your time, I share how Michael helped men strengthen letters to judges, probation, and employers, and why telling the truth on calls matters more than fishing for sympathy, I get into Viktor Frankl on the why, Marcus Aurelius on perspective, and Epictetus on where to put your attention day to day, I explain why my own why was making my parents proud and not encumbering their retirement and how restitution payments fit into that, if you want all the examples and pacing you can listen to the full podcast, and you can also read the full blog on White Collar Advice.
