  • Renunciation is having passing thoughts about ice-cream but having no attachment and desire for it.
  • You can be as old as me and still be tense, urgent and uncertain about the future.

  • Go analog.
  • In this knowledge economy, find out how you can bring a different social capital to the table.
  • Entertaining yourself mindlessly on the Internet is living a life of existential risk.

I never want to let this idea out of my sight – Our children are not just GPAs. I’m a Writer and a Certified Master Coach in NLP and CBT. Until 2017, I was also a Big Data Scientist. In December of 2044, I hope to win the Nobel. Namasté

CLARITY - A Pillar of FutureSTRONG Academy

 

 

Our children will one day face the real world without our support. Academic development is not the only skill they will need in the real world where people skills like taking the lead, emotional intelligence and a strong moral compass will determine who will shine. So, as parents who want to raise well rounded adults, we want to give them the right tools for their personal development.

Here is CLARITY as described as the 6 C’s of Future STRONG.
