We're going to take all that weight off his bar right now.

He's three, man.

He's too early to be in the weight room.

Okay.

When he throws a temper tantrum, we're going to get down on eye level with him, and we're going to say, hey, bud, I'm right here.

As soon as you're done, I'm ready to play with the ball.

I'll be in the other room with the ball.

And you can walk to the other room and flex your muscles and be like, right?

But he's not going to see that.

And I'm going to begin practicing not outsourcing my feelings to the performance of a three-year-old.

Here's the thing.

It's having compassion with yourself and your instant response.

And then do the next right thing, which often is, I'm going to back up for a second.

If you put this down on paper and read it to your wife face to face, looking her in the eye when you can and say, I wanna practice humility.

I wanna practice letting my ego go.

I wanna practice letting this anger go.

I need to learn some new skills.

Will you be my eye in the sky when I can't see?

After she picks her jaw up off the floor, my gut tells me she's going to hug you big and say, yes, I'm with you.

Is that fair?
