I found a guy who goes around the US asking 70 to 100-year-olds their:

• Biggest Regrets
• Biggest Lessons
• Advice to their younger self

Oddly enough, most of their answers are the same…

Here are my top 8:

School holidays are here! There's lots of fun ahead but for many there can also be some tricky times.
Don't forget there are a range of resources focused on emotional health at https://t.co/9wO9CxMjoo and we still offer free access for people in Scotland using access code TARTAN

This is interesting! Yes, preventative care over fire fighting all the way. Though I did automatically think that Scottish children would have had poorer health. This highlights the positive impact of the HV pathway in promoting health and reducing health inequalities 👏

Brain under construction! 🚧 🧠 🚧

Did you know that the period from prenatal to age three is the single most consequential window in all of human development?

It is here that the fundamental architecture of the brain is “wired” in ways that will serve to support (or hinder) your child’s success for decades to come.

At birth, your baby’s brain comes equipped with roughly 100 billion nerve cells, virtually all they will ever have.

But what these cells must develop is the ability to communicate effectively with one another.

They do this by transmitting electrical impulses. And there’s no time in life when these connections (known as synapses) are firing like they are during infancy.

Scientists estimate that during the earliest years of life these neural connections are being made at a rate of one million per SECOND.

Pretty impressive, huh?

How can you help ensure your baby’s brain is optimally wired for success?

Through attentive and nurturing interactions like the ones shown here.

Every word you speak, every facial expression you convey, and every loving touch is helping to create important new connections.

No one can be this attentive 24 hours a day. But prioritizing time to speak, sing, laugh, and play with your baby face-to-face is an investment you’ll never regret - and one that will serve them well for years and years to come.

Know a new parent or grandparent? Pass it on!

We have a duty to hold onto hope. Hope that the promise will be kept because, without hope - the system will do what the system always does. It will swallow up any form of threat. Hope is a threat because when we dare to dream and dare to hope - things change.

#KeepThePromise💜

When life pulls you back, remember it’s like an arrow being drawn on a bowstring.
Setbacks are but fuel for your journey.

Stand firm, focus on your target, and let the release propel you towards growth.

Stay strong; better days are on the horizon. #Resilience #GrowthMindset
