do you have kids that are just always
0:01
fighting welcome black my name is belief
0:03
I equip fathers to let me lead their
0:05
families into eternity and I wish I
0:06
would have did a better job fostering
0:08
healthy competition within my two oldest
0:10
kids right now these boys are always
0:12
competing whether it’s hockey dodgeball
0:14
basketball or just competing for
0:17
attention right they’re always doing
0:19
that and I noticed with this last video
0:21
I’ll put out you guys may have seen it
0:22
we did a backyard workout with the whole
0:25
family it was really fun you may have
0:26
seen a video of us doing a workout in
0:27
the backyard and it was all good but the
0:30
kids really don’t know how to encourage
0:31
each other I noticed this during that
0:34
time and it was kind of discouraging I
0:35
was like ah I could have did a better
0:37
job teaching them how to encourage each
0:39
other as toddlers uh coming into right
0:42
being a kid and the reason why this is
0:44
so important is because their standard
0:46
for success is not necessarily the best
0:48
they can do it is just better than the
0:51
other sibling right I can do it better
0:53
than you the so I’m a master right the
0:55
kids really think they can beat me in
0:56
tennis now I’m not really good at tennis
0:57
but I will smash the ball down there
0:59
throat you understand like I’m not
1:01
playing when it comes to tennis but they
1:03
really believe that just because they
1:04
beat their brother or they can win and
1:06
hit the ball sometimes they can beat a
1:08
professional like they don’t have any
1:09
gauge of success they just think that
1:11
their competition is their sibling and
1:13
really their teammate is there simply
1:15
their competition is themselves right
1:17
they have to try to be better in every
1:19
single stage and not because I’m like
1:21
this over commanding and demanding
1:24
father I just want them to be the best
1:25
that they can be but if their standard
1:27
is their sibling that’s not fair to them
1:29
that’s not fair to the sibling and
1:30
that’s not fair to us as parents because
1:32
we want to root for them all
1:33
individually so I’m bringing this up
1:34
because I feel like a lot of parents and
1:36
influencers could do a better job of
1:39
sharing not just the good stuff but also
1:40
the things that they wish that they’d
1:42
done better and this is one area that I
1:44
feel like dang man I really could have
1:45
did a better job
1:47
teaching my kids how to encourage each
1:50
other that way we don’t have arm bars in
1:53
the middle of homeschool thank you guys
1:54
so much for watching particularly like
1:55
keeping that work popping see you guys
1:57
next time
