I've been alive a lot of years.
I have one piece of advice.
GET GOOD.
Good at what?
At anything.
Just get good.
You came with a gift.
A Get-Good gift.
You know how a Mac can't run PC software?
Or iPhone apps won't work on Android?
Wrong operating system. Doesn't fit.
You have an operating system too.
And some things don't fit YOU.
Imagine this . . .
"Jamie! Eyes on your own worksheet."
Ms. Martinez
"Sorry, Ms. Martinez. This stuff just don't work with my brain's operating system."
Jamie
*Gasp*
Your OS is programmed to get better
at whatever YOU love.
You didn't install it. It came with you.
Diego:
Yo Dr. B — I seen what you did with dem kids. They were changed. How you do that?
Dr. B:
I show them how to get good at things.
Diego:
That's it?
Dr. B:
That's it. They already got the gift. I just help them find it.
And bro —
this ain't just science.
It's in the Bible too.
You are...
- Wonderfully made
- Given gifts to use
- Built for your path
- Made for good works
But here's the thing...
People mess with your system.
Adults have blindspots.
They push you toward their dreams. Not yours.
And other kids?
Some use their gift to tear you down.
They don't even know they're doing it.
Your operating system belongs to you.
Nobody gets to hijack it.
Not a kid who wants to look cool by making you look small.
Not an adult who thinks they know better.
Nobody.
Even if they're 100 years old.
Get good at whatever lights you up.
And get good at making choices.
That's where your whole life gets decided.
If your parents don't understand why this matters?
I'll talk to them for you.
Follow the 4 LAWS journey
to get good at any of these:
You were built to love your life.
Don't let anyone take that from you.
This page will show you how.
Enjoy your ride.
— Dr. B
