    Quote:

    “...If the green slip of an olive tree is merely planted and allowed to grow, it develops into the wild olive, a bush that grows without control into a tangle of limbs and branches producing only a small, worthless fruit. To become the productive “tame” olive tree, the main stem of the wild tree must be cut back completely and a branch from a tame olive tree grafted into the stem of the wild one. With careful pruning and cultivating, the tree will begin to produce its first fruit in about 7 years, but it will not become fully productive for nearly 15 years. ...The olive tree cannot become productive by itself. ...When [Israel] gave themselves to their God (or their mentor / conductor) for pruning and grafting they prospered & bore much fruit but when they turned from Christ...they became wild and unfruitful.” (Book of Mormon Student Manual)

    Quotes:

    • "When children push against limits, they're asking for connection and reassurance that we're still there for them, even as they try to push us away." - Dr. Laura Markham
    • "The more you try to control, the more you show your fear; the more you show your fear, the more your child knows how to control you." - Dr. Shefali Tsabary
    • "The more inflexible you are as a parent, the more oppositional your child is likely to become." - Dr. Ross Greene

    Actionable Tips:

    1. Practice active listening: Take the time to listen to your teen's perspective without judgment or interruption.
    2. Set aside dedicated one-on-one time: Regularly schedule quality time with your teen to strengthen your connection outside of conflict.
    3. Model healthy conflict resolution: Demonstrate respectful communication and problem-solving skills in your interactions with your teen.
    4. Be consistent with consequences: Follow through on established boundaries and consequences consistently to maintain trust and credibility.
    5. Normalize the human experience, recognize that we all have weaknesses (own them), and then have self-compassion for these challenges. Being a parent is hard work!
    6. Point out the good!’

    Here are five simple tips to help break bad habits:

    1. Identify the Triggers: Recognize the cues or situations that prompt the habit. Understanding what triggers your behavior can help you anticipate and avoid those situations or develop alternative responses.
    2. Replace with Positive Habits: Instead of simply trying to stop a bad habit, focus on substituting it with a healthier or more productive behavior. For example, if you're trying to quit smoking, replace cigarette breaks with a walk or another activity you enjoy.
    3. Set Clear Goals: Define specific, achievable goals related to breaking the habit. Break down larger goals into smaller, manageable steps, and track your progress along the way. Celebrate your successes to stay motivated.
    4. Create Accountability: Share your goals with supportive friends, family members, or a mentor who can provide encouragement and hold you accountable. Consider joining a support group or finding an accountability partner to help you stay on track.
    5. Practice Self-Compassion: Understand that breaking a habit takes time and effort, and setbacks are a natural part of the process. Be kind to yourself and focus on progress rather than perfection. When you slip up, acknowledge it, learn from it, and recommit to your goals.

    Quotes:

    “Do not go for conformity that breeds mediocrity! Choose instead to stand for transformation that does not only transforms lives, but true purpose and living as well.”

    ― Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

    “Don’t let mediocre people talk you out of your dreams; lions have little in common with sheep.”

    ― Matshona Dhliwayo

    “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

    - Marianne Williamson

    “The tragedy of life is often not in our failure, but rather in our complacency; not in our doing too much, but rather in our doing too little; not in our living above our ability, but rather in our living below our capacities.”-Andy Grove

    “To avoid enemies, say nothing; to avoid critics, do nothing; to avoid haters, be nothing; but to avoid mediocrity, ignore all.”

    ― Matshona Dhliwayo

    “Stumbling towards greatness is better than sprinting towards mediocrity.”

    ― Matshona Dhliwayo

    “To be ridiculed for your genius is better than to be praised for your mediocrity.”

    ― Matshona Dhliwayo

    “The lonely road to greatness is better than the crowded road to mediocrity.”

    ― Matshona Dhliwayo
