More lessons in life (and Business Analysis) I’ve learned from my son.

“You cannot make people learn. You can only provide the right conditions for learning to happen.” ~ Vince Gowmon

Since I last wrote on this subject, my son has had another birthday (hurrah for cake!), developed an obsession with Toy Story 4 and Bluey (which is brilliant, by the way).

Honestly, this is one of the greatest TV programmes ever.

I’ve gone even greyer, and he’s still partial to getting up in the middle of the night to get into his parents’ bed. By getting into, read: taking over. Seriously, how does someone so tiny take up so much room?

This is not indicative of just how much of my side of the bed he is hogging.

Since his nighttime impersonation of a starfish has essentially annexed my side of the bed yet again (but never ever his mum’s), I figured I’d get up and write down a few more lessons this little one continues to teach me about life, the universe and business analysis…
