@IvanCepedaCast Ojala criticaras por igual, pero ante los insultos constantes de @petrogustavo solo silencio. El pacto histórico es culpable de esta nueva forma de hacer política. Insultando y dividiendo llegaron al poder y así gobernaron 4 años. Para la muestra los últimos días. Que vergüenza

[Lincoln @flabbytofit99]

We went to dinner at another family's house last week.

Their kids talked back to their mom.
Ignored direct instructions.
Interrupted adult conversations constantly.
Demanded screens when they got bored.

And the parents just... let it happen.

"Oh, he's just tired."
"She's going through a phase."
"We're working on it."

No you're not.

You're avoiding it.

Because actually addressing it would mean being the bad guy.
And you're more worried about being liked than being respected.

My kids aren't perfect.

But they know:
• You don't interrupt adults
• You respond the first time you're asked
• You don't demand things
• Screens aren't a right

Not because I'm some drill sergeant.

Because I decided a long time ago that my job isn't to be their friend.

It's to raise them into adults other people actually want to be around.

HERE'S WHAT I DO DIFFERENTLY:

I limit technology and screens.

Not because I think iPads are evil.

Because unlimited access teaches kids:
• Boredom is an emergency
• Instant gratification is normal
• They're entitled to entertainment on demand

So we don't do it.

No phones at dinner.
No tablets to keep them quiet in public.
No handing them a screen the second they complain they're bored.

And yeah, other parents notice.

They notice my kids can sit through a meal without melting down.
They notice my kids play outside instead of staring at a screen.
They notice my kids can entertain themselves.

Some of them respect it.

Others think I'm too strict.
Too old-school.
Too controlling.

I don't care.

Because here's what I know:

The parents who let their kids run wild today are the same ones who'll be shocked when those kids can't function as teenagers.

Can't handle boredom.
Can't respect authority.
Can't delay gratification.

And by then? It's way harder to fix.

I'M NOT RAISING KIDS WHO ARE EASY RIGHT NOW.

I'm raising kids who'll be capable adults later.

That means:
• Boundaries that feel strict to other parents
• Expectations that seem too high
• Consequences that actually follow through

It's uncomfortable.

Especially when you're the only parent in the room doing it.

But you know what's more uncomfortable?

Raising a 16-year-old who never learned respect because you were too afraid to enforce it at 6.

You don't have to parent like everyone else.

You just have to be willing to look different.

And trust that what feels hard now is exactly what your kids need.

In Japanese, "tsundoku" means collecting books and letting them pile up,
not from neglect,
but for the joy of knowing they're there,
full of untold stories.

I get asked this question a lot: what's your favourite episode of The Diary Of A CEO ever?

The answer is fairly easy.. episode 101 with @MGawdat. It was our most shared episode ever, not because of fame or celebrity, but because what he said was so profound it changed the way I think about life..

Mo was the Chief Business Officer at Google X, the "moonshot factory" behind self-driving cars and some of the most futuristic technology on the planet. He co-founded over 20 businesses. By any external measure, he had achieved everything. But he was desperately unhappy..

So he did what any engineer would do - he tried to solve the problem. He spent years researching, collecting data, and eventually he discovered what he calls the happiness equation.

It's deceptively simple...

"You're happy in your life when your expectations of how life is supposed to be going are met. And you're unhappy when those expectations go unmet."

Therefore... so much of our happiness is about the gap between what happens and what you expected to happen."

I use this as a framework now to think about why I'm unhappy at certain moments in my life.

And it's always.. without any exception.. because I had an expectation of how something was going to happen and it's currently falling below that expectation.

This also explains why gratitude has always been seen as one of the great answers to happiness.

Because gratitude is the realisation that your expectations are being met in various areas of your life right now.

If you think about everything that's made you unhappy in the last week, I guarantee it's all about an expectation you had about something.

Someone cuts you off in traffic? You expected them not to. Your partner didn't do what you asked? You expected them to. Your dog pooped in the house? You expected it wouldn't.

So can we manage our expectations? of ourselves, of others, of our partners, of life itself?

Mo's son Ali died suddenly during a routine operation. It was the ultimate test of his equation. And somehow, through the worst thing a parent could ever endure, his framework helped him survive.

Have you listened to this one yet? ❤️

Joe Rogan explains why his views on religion changed after regularly attending church.

“If there was a pill that could make you as nice as the people that I go to church with, everybody would be on it.”

“If you get just to the teachings of Christ, I can't find any faults in it.”

Love seeing God on the move. 👏🏽

Want to change your life?
Stop manifesting. Start auditing.

Look at your calendar - where you waste time.
Your bank statement - where you bleed money.
Your phone - where you lose focus.

Your life is the sum of what you tolerate.
Change what you feed it.
Change what you get.

[Leila Hormozi @LeilaHormozi]

If you want to change your life, stop repeating the habits that built the one you’re trying to escape.

@FabioPovedaRuiz @avianca @avianca que tristeza ver en lo que se ha convertido esta aerolínea. Desde ayer con mi hijo tratando de llegar a la casa. Que falta de respeto.

[Fabio Poveda @FabioPovedaRuiz]

Lo que estamos viviendo en este momento unas 200 personas en Miami es inconcebible. Ayer abordamos el vuelo 003 de @avianca con destino a B/quilla. Luego de 2 horas a bordo el capitán informó que la aeronave tenía un daño en un sensor de incendios de la bodega de equipaje.

Pay the taxes of life gladly. Not just from the government. Annoying people are a tax on being outside your house. Delays are a tax on travel. Haters are a tax on having a YouTube channel. There’s a tax on everything in life. You can whine. Or you can pay them gladly.

[Daniel Samper Ospina @DanielSamperO]

Qué tremenda columna de @RSilvaRomero:

"Qué tal uno haber votado contra la derecha desde los 18 hasta los 48 para luego quedarse callado ante los desmanes de los compañeros de causa. Qué tal uno hacerse el pendejo a estas alturas de la vida ante las corrupciones rampantes o las decisiones fatales del Gobierno socialdemócrata que tanto anhelaba. Qué tal uno dejar pasar así como así, por miedo a que ser crítico de la mediocridad sea un golpe bajo a la izquierda, el hecho de que un Gobierno de la vida sea de paso un Gobierno que sacrifica la salud. La vejez es un arte. Puede ser el triunfo de la frustración o el clímax de la compasión. Puede ser la obsesión por prevalecer o el alivio de ir llegando a la otra orilla sin haber hecho males. Yo, de ser político, entendería a tiempo que nada va a librarnos de nuestro propio juicio final.

Sé que no he acabado de hacer méritos para ser viejo, pero tengo ya la edad en la que está bien repetir que –de seguir por el camino de la soberbia– esto que iba a ser tan bueno va a acabar muy mal."

No presidente @petrogustavo, no nos da rabia ni su color de piel, ni que haya estudiado en una escuela pública, de hecho eso nos llena de Orgullo.

Lo que nos da rabia es su incapacidad para construir equipos y consensos.

Nos da rabia su incumplimiento a todas sus citas.

Nos da rabia que haya vivido del erario tantos años como senador y no haya radicado un solo proyecto de ley.

Nos da rabia que no sepa administrar la política pública.

Nos da rabia que se victimice como presidente en vez de estar solucionando los problemas del país.

Nos da rabia que se haga el tonto con los escándalos de corrupción de su gobierno como los carrotanques de la Guajira.

Nos da rabia que se las dé de “Adalid de la moral”, cuando la corrupción está en el seno de su familia.

Nos da rabia que no escuche el sentir de millones de personas que están inconformes con su desgobierno.

Nos da rabia que se alié con Maduro y no condene la tiranía que vive Venezuela.

Nos da rabia que nombre funcionarios incompetentes en cargos altamente técnicos.

Nos da rabia que quiera imponernos improvisados proyectos de ley que ni siquiera cuenta con el aval fiscal.

Nos da rabia que culpe a otros de la escasez de agua en Bogotá, cuando fue usted el que no dejó prosperar el proyecto de un nuevo embalse, siendo alcalde de esta ciudad.

Nos da rabia su discurso populista, lleno de promesas y vacío de realidades.

Nos da rabia que todos los grupos armados ilegales se estén tomando el país, mientras usted sigue hablando de paz total.

Pero lo que más rabia nos da, es que Hable, Hable, Hable, Hable, Hable y no gobierno, pues a usted lo eligieron fue para gobernar…
