Viewing obstacles as opportunities | Dr. Henry Cloud

Ойын-сауық

Dr. Cloud explores the idea that achieving anything of value in life requires doing things we don't want to do. He draws from personal experiences, such as pulling an all-nighter to meet a book deadline, and uses relatable examples like losing weight or building a successful marriage. Dr. Cloud emphasizes that embracing this mindset - that discomfort and effort are necessary for growth - is crucial. He touches on parenting styles that may inadvertently shield children from struggles, preventing them from developing grit. Overall, the talk encourages viewers to reframe their perspective on challenges, seeing them not as obstacles but as opportunities for personal development and ultimately creating a life of value.

    Daddy court 😂😂😂 brilliant. This is an emotionally sobering lesson. I think everyone after your generation are suffering with boundary problems. We want others to solve our problems and tell us what to do and we don't like the answer. Ok... so then what's the answer. I had a boss the same generation as you who said, if it's to be, it's up to me! Learning a lot here and I'm putting it into practice one small step at a time... and I'll give myself permission to do it imperfectly ~ Nicole

    This is the lesson we are called to teach new believers. On the one hand, if you've got to go through it, you might as well get some good out of it. A more positive spin is that you don't get good character without some pain. Don't go through this all for nothing. It taught me that God will truly never leave. I didn:t know Him nearly as close until I learned more about Genesis 1 and suffered a break in my family because of that. Who do

    Oops. I think I'm making a start on the lessons of the last half of my life. I have learned some of what I'll call psychology and a bit of theology. In each of those, an important lesson has been trusting God's guidance about things in both areas, that are best left to professionals. It's not that I have to stop seeking God❤. That's not it at all. I want to learn to care for people enough to really listen. How do I make myself into what I have read.

    Thank you for this. I am 58 working for a 40 year old in a boundaryless workplace. He is hiring really young people and i notice they think I'm their "work mommy". It's been a nightmare.
