I have too much baggage at work. I come home, I feel anxious. I feel overwhelmed. How do I walk in the door more calmly and peaceful so I can be the husband and father I'm meant to be? I want you to imagine that you're driving home from work. You accidentally forgot the baggage that's overwhelming you, that's causing you to be anxious at work. Now, I know it's not that simple and that easy, just drop it. But if theoretically you were to be able to leave that baggage behind and walk into your home, what would your wife notice instead? What's the first thing she would see in you that would be pleasing? What would your children see in you that you'd be most proud of? Negative experiences, negative feelings are experienced in a vacuum of positive experiences. And the moment we identify what we truly care about, the version of ourselves we're most proud of, that can be an incredibly healing process. [Music]
