Have I mentioned that Jacob is a dream? He is so smiley, so squishy, so good at naps, and so pleasant. I can't even handle it.
But he is more than just a wonderful baby. He is also a great mentor. And he's here tonight to teach us things that will improve our lives and careers.
1. Be proactive. If you see something, you should reach for it.
2. Begin with the end in mind. What do you want? Those blinky lights? Then keep your eye on the ball and constantly review your mission statement.
3. Put first things first. Prioritize the tasks in your life, starting with:
Important and urgent
 |
| Attention is important and urgent. |
 |
| He can't really spend the night like this. |
Not important and urgent
 |
| You really don't have to use the bathroom, mom. Don't leave me. Ever. |
And finally not important and not urgent
 |
| Don't you dare check your phone if I'm awake. |
4. Think win-win. If you go to sleep, then you and your parents will both be happy! If you smile instead of crying and swallowing air, then you won't be uncomfortable and your parents won't have to burp you.
5. Seek first to understand,
then to be understood.
Develop your ethos,
 |
| Or legos if you are an older brother. |
6. Synergize! You can make a better selfie when you work together with mom.
7. Sharpen the saw. Renew your resources and energy for an effective, happy lifestyle.
Yep, he's got life figured out! And he's helping to keep us happy, too.
