By: Jim Stevens
1. It feels great to run and not worry about how fast or how far.

3. Remember homework? Yeah, it sucks. And kids have a lot more of it these days.
4. Compared with your kid, you were a moron at age 10. All that homework is paying off.
5. The only role models who have an actual impact are the ones at the dinner table.
6. Cookies taste better if you make them.
7. Dreams propel us forward. Even outlandish ones. Especially outlandish ones.
8. Genes are ridiculously powerful.
9. Your dad enjoyed wine for good reason.
10. The world isn't screwed. Most kids are good. There are a lot of smart young people taking over the planet.
