Planting seeds of synergy in the collective garden that empower individuals to example change through environmental stewardship, social connection and technological collaboration.
Peter is a professor, published author and good friend. He has taught students for decades across a range of different subject matters and in this conversation he shares his research and personal experience on the importance of the relationships we have with our parents.
Join this conversation as we explore the synergy between science and faith, parental relationships and their enduring impacts on our happiness, finances and family, as well as the capacity for growth we unlock by breaking the restrictive vows we make with ourselves.
I extend my sincerest gratitude to Peter as I learned so much from this exchange. Reflecting on the seeds that were planted in my garden from this were:
– The most important skills a parent can impart unto their child is the capacity to love and to trust. As love and trust form the bedrock of all our meaningful long-term relationships.
– A lifelong inability to manage one's anger was the single biggest contributor to an unsuccessful and unfulfilling work life.
– The vows we make against our parents or traits they possess can cause us to repeat the same poor decisions time and time again.
– We are more than capable of changing our behaviours and vows, we can utilise three mechanisms to do so: the Conviction Mechanism (Reviewing evidence that convinces us we are doing the right thing), the Faith Mechanism (Reaffirming our path through belief, gratitude and prayer) and the Community Mechanism (Seeking support, role modelling and engagement from our community)
– Our parents are only human, they make mistakes and they can't teach us everything and so it is ok to seek mothering and fathering from others for different things.
I am so appreciative for your parents, for without them we would not be blessed with the wonders of you!
Until our next exchange, continue to embody all that you seek and you will plant seeds of synergy in the soil of every moment.
