Strengthen Your Family Connection

Strengthen Your Family Connection

One of the biggest challenges for families to stay connected is the busy pace of life. Mimi Doe presents seven core concepts for connected families. Doe asserts that by embracing the following seven core concepts, life can become more balanced.

  • Tolerance: Let the little things go. Understand that those we love might have different pictures in their minds of how events should play out.
  • Time together: Be creative and harvest more time for your family.
  • Trial and error: Never give up. Continue to try new approaches and adjust for changing age and interest.
  • Take it out into the world : Practice compassion in action as a family.
  • Teach less, listen more: Honor each other’s viewpoints and dreams. If you have kids, learn from them.
  • Tools for living: Begin creating your family’s unique toolbox of beliefs. Be specific about what beliefs and values make it into the box, why they are there and how to put them to use.
  • Total love: You cannot go wrong when you love deeply. Never assume that your family knows how much you love them. Show them often.
