These are the Childwise Principles:
1. Great marriages make great parents.
2. Use the strength of your leadership early on and the strength of your
relationship later.
3. Parent now; be friends later.
4. Instill morality into a child and her behavior will fall into place.
5. Do to others what you would have them do unto you.
6. Other people count.
7. It's not enough to teach your children to act morally; they must learn how to
think morally.
8. To teach a virtue, one example (you) is better than a thousand lectures
9. Discipline is heart food for your child.
10. If learning didn't take place, correction didn't happen.
11. Allowing a child to progress into his new and expanding world in an orderly
fashion, greatly enhances learning and decreases the need for correction.
12. Constantly reminding a child to do what is expected only means you have no
expectation.
13. Verbal affirmation is NEVER redundant.
14. Wise parenting is better than power parenting.
15. An ounce of self-control is better than a pound of trouble.

About a year ago, I watched a show called "Change Your Brain, Change Your Life". These are the notes that I took and they have been posted on my refrigerator ever since. Tips for a healthy brain:
1. Sex atleast 3 times per week (can also get
rid of a headache-so the wife can't use that
excuse!)
2. Exercise increases seratonin and blood flow
to the brain. 12 weeks of exercise is the
same as 12 weeks of Zoloft; 10 months of
exercise blows Zoloft out of the water and
increases the libido.
3. Water!
4. No more than 2 cups of coffee per day.
5. Brain Foods-walnuts; brazil nuts; avocados
and salmon are both high in omega 3 fatty
acids, which are very good for the brain);
spinach-B vitamins for balance in body;
broccoli-folate; green tea-full of
antioxidants (relax and focus); oatmeal-
fiber, cholesterol reducer; blueberries-
antioxidants.
6. 2 glasses of red wine per week; not per day!
7. Smoking constricts the blood vessels.
8. Lifelong learning-constantly learn something
new including things that require
coordination.
9. Red bell peppers have 3 times the vitamin C
that green ones do.
10. Alcohol puts HOLES in your brain!
11. Fish Oil or Flaxseed Oil (omega 3s)
20 Truths to Remember:
1. Faith is the ability not to panic.
2. If you worry, you didn't pray. If you pray, you don't worry.
3. As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home every day.
4. Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.
5. When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.
6. Do the math. Count your blessings.
7. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.
8. Dear God: I have a problem, it's me.
9. Silence is often misinterpreted, but never misquoted.
10. Laugh everyday, it's like inner jogging.
11. The most important things in your home are the people.
12. Growing old is inevitable, growing up is optional.
13. There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
15. He who dies with the most toys is still dead.
16. We do not remember days, but moments. Life moves too fast, so enjoy your precious moments.
17. Nothing is real to you until you experience it, otherwise it's just hearsay.
18. It's alright to sit on your pity pot every now and again. Just be sure to flush when you are done.
19. Surviving and living your life successfully requires courage and risk-taking. Learn from the turtle-it only makes progress when it sticks out its neck.
20. Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
