Today’s Monday Mindset: Choose Your Models
Yesterday was an emotional day for us as we dropped off our daughter Anna for her first year of college at the University of Ottawa. It is about five hours away from where we live.
On the way home, we stopped by to visit our longtime mentors, Ryan and Vanessa Dawson. We got to know them in college when they began mentoring my wife and I.
And they have had an enormous impact on our lives.
We’ve continued to stay in touch with them. In addition to being spiritual mentors for us, they have been life mentors, mentors in terms of how to do marriage well, how to raise kids well, how to do life well.
They’ve had such an impact that I was just reminded of the importance of choosing your models.
Who are you going to model your life after? Who do you want to model your relationships after?
Whether it’s a marriage relationship, relationships with your kids, friends, whatever it might be, choose your models carefully.
Ryan and Vanessa have been just an amazing model for us in so many aspects of our lives – how we want to live, who we want to be. And if you don’t choose your models, you’ll revert back to whatever models were in place for you from the time you were young. Those may not be the best models.
So my challenge for you today is to be really conscientious of choosing your models of who you want to live your life like.
When you do so, you’ll be setting yourself up for success.
Choose your models.
That’s your Monday Mindset.
