    What John Knows About Independence Day

    What John Knows About Independence Day

    In today's episode, John shares what he knows about Independence Day and the American Revolution. While his timeline of the occurrence of some events may be a little off, his understanding of the facts is pretty spot on for an 11 year old.
    Also evident from this episode, is that Will needs to brush up on his history! While fact checking some of John's statements, it was discovered that John's record was quite a bit better than Will's! We should have subtitle this episode, "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?" Today's answer is a definitive NO!

    What John Knows About Life - 11 Words of Wisdom on the Eve of John's 11th Birthday

    What John Knows About Life - 11 Words of Wisdom on the Eve of John's 11th Birthday

    In this episode, John shares 11 statements of wisdom and life lessons on the eve of his 11th Birthday in his own words.
    Don’t get stuck on thoughts of the past, always look forward. Never give up on the things that are important to you. Aesop's fable "The Fox and Grapes" It’s okay to be sad, but don’t let it get you stuck in the mud. Always set goals or you’ll end up nowhere. Books are like scrolls of knowledge. Without them you can’t live. Play LEGO every day to keep your creative juices flowing. Don't just build, create stories. If you always live a life of anger and jealousy, your life will be short and sad. Always be kind to others, because you don’t know what they are going through. Prioritize collecting experiences over things. Life is so short, enjoy it while it lasts.
