“It’s ok to disagree. Just don’t be disagreeable.” Lessons on life and leadership through the prism of basketball from UCLA coach John Wooden, delivered by Bill Walton. This is well worth 2:41 of your day. Rest In Peace, Big Fella.

Welcome to the GBP @jordan3love ! Meantime, @AaronRodgers12 NFL MVP 2020! Let's get it!!

I often hear people tell me how great they feel after a workout, how it leaves a smile on their face, and brings the stress level of life down to a tolerable level. I have been told by many of my gym members that working out is like therapy for them, how great it feels to move...well let me tell ya , if you think you feel great as an adult after a bout of vigorous movement how the hell do you think children feel?  Children who are chock full of boundless energy, with developing brains and bodies and an emotional system that can often change from high to low and back again in a matter of minutes. I can tell you that children need movement much more than any adult ever could. Kids get stressed out, too, while their worries may seem trivial to our super important adult worries. To them, they are very important. The problem is that not all children see the big picture or have the experiences yet to know everything is going to be ok. It's because of this that children need movement and lots of it. It makes them feel better, improves their focus, burns off that nervous energy, and allows them to gain a sense of self and learn their surroundings. But what do we with children, just the opposite: we shorten recess, increase class time,take away physical education, music and art, take one minute tests, 20 minute tests, standardized tests, mid-terms and on and on. we fence them in, lock them down, sit them in front of a box with pictures... If you have children or have the pleasure to work with children, understand that movement/exercise/play goes way beyond just having fun, it is literally the life blood of childhood. No amount of learning ever takes place without some form of movement that has laid down the connections in the brain. Also, the more happy experiences children have, the better chance they will be happy adults. If you have access to kids, get them moving, move in the classroom, move at home, move outside, just move. Chase each other, give high fives, jump, spin, roll, hop, yell, wrestle, and have fun... My Playground 👇
