041 | Us & Kids: Hole in the Bucket
Inspiration from this Episode
“There's a hole in the bucket but for us, there might be a hole in our heart.”
“We often have to throw out seven ideas before we come up with a reasonably good idea and then that probably has to be fine tuned.”
“They're going to tell me about the hole and I'm going to listen carefully so that I understand it.”
041 | Us & Kids: Hole in the Bucket
Intro
On today’s show, we're talking about a hole in our bucket. I'm curious, do you know this song? It's about two characters - Henry and Eliza. Henry has a leaky bucket and Lysa just wants him to fix it. The song describes a deadlock situation where the things you need are dependent on the things you currently don’t have.
My question for you is, are there decisions made in your house that sounds like this song. Is there one parent who always needs something done or fixed and just wants it finished now? Does the other parent always seem to have a roadblock and fine reasons it won’t work?
