Send us a textIn this episode of They Come With Instructions, we explore the powerful truth that children - starting as early as infancy - learn more from what they observe than what they're told. Our actions, attitudes, and habits become the blueprint our children follow. As the Bible reminds us, we are to teach by precept and example. This episode encourages parents to reflect the consistency between what we say and how we live. Because more than our words, our lives are the lessons our children carry forward.Thank you for listening. Let's connect... Contact: TCWI@ReneAndersonWritings.com ...

In this episode I explain the term cognitive dissonance, and how it can be someone's friend, especially is they are suffering from codependency or what I call self-love deficit disorder.

For example, if you believe eating healthy is important but eat junk food, you might feel guilty or uneasy. To feel better, you might try to justify your actions by saying it was a special occasion. You might ...

Found a double stacker today with some good reminders for all of us. The first one came from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) where this was shared: “Allow yourself to shine without the desire to be seen.” As I was sharing some thoughts here in this episode about this post, I started to share something else from a post I also shared - this one came from Mind Essentials (@Mind_Essentials) where this thought connected: “Do everything with a good heart, expect nothing in return, and you will never be disappointed.” Both of these tie into the thought of “do good anyway.” No matter ...
