Three Strategies To Take When Parenting Seems Imperfect

Recently, I came across a metaphor that was said by Stephen Covey. He said, before the plane takes off, the pilot has a perfect plan. A perfect strategy. But, what happens during the course of the flight? There’s wind, rain, turbulence, air traffic, human errors, and so forth. No matter how prepared the pilot is, there are circumstances along the journey he doesn’t have control of. 

Same thing happens with parenting. We might have the perfect plan in place but just like flying a plane, we don't have control of the external factors that can always affect how we parent our children. All we can do is adapt and make adjustments to still stay true to our purpose, our goal.

In this episode, I would like to share with you three strategies you can do whenever you feel discouraged about being imperfect at parenting, and whenever you feel like you’re not a good enough parent.
