That little bit of grease, determination, and pride goes a long way.

Wonderful video. We have a 14 year old who has loved doing the same type things. He's been "fixing" things since he was very young. He was driving a tractor before he could reach the pedals. He replaced a lawn mower blade on my mother-in-law's lawn mower when he was 5! He helped my husband do a total remodel on our guest bathroom when he was quite young. This week he started high-school. He's 5'8" and growing like a weed. His current project... he's restoring a '69 Ford truck that was my dad's. Keep the kids learning lifetime skills and in sports. Get 'em outside and interested in things other than Xbox, Playstation or phones. I love the young man he's becoming and if 💩 hits the fan, he's definitely someone you'd want in your corner. He's smart, handy, has an analytical brain that's great for problem solving. So, the young boy in the video is on track to becoming a strong self-sufficient man. Bravo!

That’s going to take him a long way in life. He can depend on himself and never be disappointed

Because someday, that little boy will be a man who knows how to show up, work hard, and figure things out when life throws him a wrench 💛

THAT'S HOW I GREW UP IN THE 70'S, I FIXED EVERYTHING, MY MOM ALWAYS CALLED ME BECAUSE MY DAD WAS UNELESS EXCEPT FOR THE SPERM. BUT THEN THEY MADE EVERYTHING UNFIXABLE. I LOOK UNDER A CAR HOOD, I RECOGNISE NOTHING, THEY EVEN HID THE BATTERY.

Great parenting. Training the kids from a young age is the way - they want to learn, they want to emulate their parents, they want to do things themselves.

Jordan Peterson: "If you can't fix your room, you can't fix your life" "Why should you even bother improving yourself? The answer is something like: so you don't suffer anymore stupidly than you have to. And maybe so others don't have to either. It's not some casual self-help doctrine. If you don't organize yourself properly, you'll pay for it. In a big way. And so will the people around you." Peterson continues: "You can say, 'Well, I don't care about that.' But that's actually not true, you do care about it. Because if you're in pain, you will care about it. It's very rare that you can find someone in excruciating pain who would say, 'Well, it would be no better if I was out of this.' Pain brings the idea that it would be better if it didn't exist along with it. It's incontrovertible." On how to start: "Look around for something that bothers you and see if you can fix it. You can do this in a room. Sit in your bedroom and think: 'If I wanted to spend ten minutes making this room better, what would I have to do?' You have to ask yourself that, it's a genuine question. And things will pop out. There's a stack of papers bugging you. Some rubbish behind your computer monitor you haven't attended to for six months. Cables tangled up." He explains why this matters: "If you were coming to see me for psychotherapy, the easiest thing would be to get you to organize your room. You think, is that psychotherapy? It depends on how you conceive the limits of your being. Start where you can start. If something announces itself as in need of repair that you could repair, fix it. Fix a hundred things like that, your life will be a lot different." On fixing what you repeat every day: "People tend to think of their daily routines as trivial. You get up, brush your teeth, have breakfast. Those probably constitute 50% of your life. People think, they're mundane, I don't need to pay attention to them. No, that's exactly wrong. The things you do every day are the most important things you do. Hands down. Just do the arithmetic." On staying within your competence: "Sometimes you don't know how to fix something. Imagine you're walking down the street and there's a guy who's alcoholic and schizophrenic and has been homeless for ten years. That's a problem. It would be good if you could fix it, but you haven't got a clue. You walk around that and go find something you could fix. Just because something announces itself as in need of repair doesn't mean it's you, right then and there, who should repair it. You have to have some humility. You don't walk up to a helicopter that isn't working and just start tinkering away." Peterson shares the key insight: "As soon as you give your mind a genuine aim, it'll reconfigure the world in keeping with that aim. That's actually how you see to begin with. You've all seen the video where you watch basketballs being tossed back and forth, and while you're doing that, a gorilla walks into the middle of the video and you don't see it. If you thought about that experiment for five years, that would be about the right amount of time to spend thinking about it." He explains what it reveals: "What it shows you is that you see what you aim at. If you can get one thing through your head, that would be a good one. You see what you aim at. One inference you might draw from that is: be careful what you aim at. What you aim at determines the way the world manifests itself to you. So if the world is manifesting itself in a very negative way, one thing to ask is: are you aiming at the right thing?"

Michael Jordan shares the secret to his success and why he has no regrets. "I really don't have regrets. As soon as you look back in your history and come up with something you want to change - something else has to change." Every failure, every setback - it all shaped who he became. "To win, you gotta lose. To be successful, you gotta have something that's not successful. To be happy, you gotta have disappointment." "All of those things have evolved and happened to make me who I am and understand the benefits and the privileges I have for being who I am." It means being able to adapt. Adapt to your circumstances and grow throughout the process. Then he shared the lesson his parents taught him: "Don't wear your reputation. Don't wear your accolades. Don't wear your personality on your sleeve." "Let it happen. Let it be you. It is who you are." "Don't hide from it—but don't rub it in people's faces." Greatness doesn't need to announce itself. Be humble in everything you do. Show up, do the work, and bring a mindset of excellence to everything you do. Then let your work speak for itself. (🎥 Cigar Aficionado)

"Elon Musk is a genius by all accounts. His commitment and his work, like I asked him one time about how does he learn. And the amount of research, the amount of study that he does is unheard of, but he'll always say the most important thing is imagination. You can learn anything that you want to learn. You can study all these things that you have in a book. If you don't have the imagination to take it to another level, it doesn't mean anything. I sat down and spoke with Elon for a couple hours. It was really, really a joy." — Kobe Bryant

You win a $4 million jackpot at 18, and suddenly it's "the system's" fault when you go broke? Please. He didn't lose his money because the lottery is a curse. He lost it because instead of taking accountability, learning how the financial system works, and hiring an advisor, he blew every single penny. Now he’s a maintenance tech budgeting to the cent for groceries. If you get handed massive wealth, it is 100% your responsibility to protect it. Would you take the time to learn the system, or would you blow it all too?
