Today, I commit to being positive and to be in control of my emotions.
I realize I cannot stop my mind from producing emotions and can only do my best to limit the affect they have on the way I project myself throughout the day.
I commit to becoming more independent from the things in life which cause me to react emotionally.
I commit to relaxing and thinking only of myself at some point during the day.
I will look forward and not look back.
As for the book, "The Men They Will Become", I have nothing but good things to say about it. Not only is it giving me perspective on "how" to guide my 9 year old son, but it is also giving me a perspective on "what" I need to be thinking about in order to transform myself into a healthier person. Its not a magic elixir but it does provide a framework for me, as a parent who didn't have a fatherly influence in my life for many years as a child. I am through 4 chapters and would give it a thumbs up.
