Fatha Torch: Be the Dad You Wish You Had

Ep. 27 We must recognize that many of us lack self-awareness and struggle to comprehend the repercussions of losing control, and the importance of practicing self-discipline. To establish a healthy relationship with oneself and others, one must exert self-control and manage one's thoughts, which various emotional and developmental factors can influence. This is especially important to consider as a man and a father in today's world.
 THE TRUTH AND FAULTS OF DISCIPLINE  
It's essential to discipline your children early on, as you may regret it later if you don't. Additionally, if you find yourself bailing out hot-tempered individuals once, be prepared to do it again. This advice can be found in Proverbs 19:18-19 of the New Living Translation( NLT).
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING IN THE COMMENTS 
Are you in control of your thoughts, or are they in control of you?
Do you struggle to comprehend yourself and your awareness?
Is there a support system in your life that you can turn to when you are experiencing difficulties with your emotions and thoughts?

Ep. 26 Relationship 101 provides us with the hope that our values and worth will be acknowledged by someone. It is equally crucial to deeply understand ourselves and the aspects we hold in high regard. It is important to make sure that these values are respected by our partners. Otherwise, we risk compromising our own sense of self-worth and integrity. It is also essential to be open to learning from our partner and growing together in the relationship.

Ep. 24 The idea of taking responsibility and being accountable can be intimidating for men who struggle with abandonment issues and commitment-related traumas. Some simply don't care about life or its lessons and behave poorly as a result. It is necessary to break these negative patterns and move on with life, taking responsibility for one's actions and learning from mistakes. This is ultimately the only way to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life for you and your children. 
                Why Do I have to Grow-up Once I Have Kids?
1. Fathers who are mature and responsible can provide a positive role model for their children. Children learn a lot from observing and imitating their parents, especially their fathers. They can develop social skills, academic abilities, emotional regulation, and self-esteem by following their father’s example.
2. Having a child can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience for men, as they can bond with their child and share their love and wisdom. However, having a child also requires men to balance their work and family life, and to cope with the demands and challenges of parenthood. Men who act their age and manage their time and resources wisely can enjoy both aspects of their life without compromising one or the other.
3. Being a "grown-up" does not mean that men have to give up their hobbies, interests, or fun activities that they enjoy. It just means that they have to be more mindful of how their actions affect themselves, their partner, and their child. Being a father is not easy, but it can also be one of the most rewarding roles in life. 😊

Ep. 23 Being a father requires possessing proper guidance, self-control, and discipline. Discipline should be viewed as a tool to impart knowledge to children about making better decisions in the future rather than punishment. Communicating expectations and consequences calmly, firmly, and consistently is essential to ensure the child comprehends. It's crucial for both parents to work together to ensure the best possible outcome for their child.
Proverbs 19:18 NLT
"Discipline your children while there is hope. Otherwise, you will ruin their lives."
 
Consistent and fair consequences are important for a child to understand the set boundaries and learn from mistakes. Praise and positive reinforcement should also be used to reward good behavior and to encourage a child's development. It is important to remember to remain consistent in the way consequences are enforced. Avoiding punishments or rewards that are overly harsh or lenient will help to ensure that the child understands the logic behind the consequences. This will enable them to learn to make better choices in the future.

Ep. 22 Translating forgiveness can be a challenging process, especially when grappling with emotions such as regret, anger, and confusion. It's crucial to clearly understand oneself to avoid getting lost in a world of pain.
Taking the time to forgive is important in accepting the situation and moving forward in your journey to be the dad you wish you had. Forgiveness doesn't mean forgetting but rather understanding and accepting what has happened. It is a path to peace and a way to open the door to a brighter future.
 As men, we must learn to confront our pain and vulnerabilities head-on to attain redemption. Forgiveness, whether towards oneself or others, may appear unattainable, but dwelling on the negative only hinders the healing process. With the help of loved ones, we can create a nurturing environment that encourages growth and progress.
Rather than clinging to familiarity, we should embrace the power of a supportive circle and allow ourselves to heal. This journey of self-discovery can be difficult and uncomfortable, but in the end, it will lead to a more meaningful life. The courage to change is within us, and we must believe in ourselves to find the strength to move forward.

How to Embrace the Wisdom of Elders to Raise the Youth

Ep. 20 As fathers, it's imperative that we possess a deep understanding of ourselves. The archaic notion of relying on guesswork to ascertain our worth and capabilities is a thing of the past. We must be cognizant of our duties and rights as fathers, and we shouldn't have to be reminded of this simply because we are fathers. Because we are men, it is our duty to protect our loved ones from any imminent danger without any apologies. We do not rely on mere likes or friend requests for a solution as we set the trend. But, with discipline and authority, we assist in your growth and prosperity and the development of our survival and legacy.
Being honest and trustworthy is crucial. We must acknowledge our limitations and avoid attempting things beyond our abilities. Blindly following authority without questioning it is not a trait of a wise man. This mindset is a product of ignorance and a legacy of conquerors who ruled with authoritarianism, disregarding the feelings and situations of others while serving their wicked interests.
