One of the most powerful tools Dr. Amen ever discovered to radically change relationship dynamics came from an unlikely source: a penguin named Fat Freddy. In this clip, taken from Dr. Daniel Amen's television special "Raising Mentally Strong Kids", Dr. Amen tells the story of how he learned this incredibly powerful lesson and as a result, became an entirely different type of father.

    It’s a true business management technique… “catch people doing things right”… and praise them for it.

    See the good in others. I'm hearing, "Do unto others as you'd have them do unto you, and love one another." Jesus was right. Again. 😮

    It’s interesting how focusing on the positive in others helped to heal Jesse’s brain. We really do have the power to heal by focusing on ourselves and our own choices

    I call this technique of only responding to the good, “ refusing to rise to the bait”. Fisherman will understand. But, it’s not only applicable to fish.

    Thank you Dr. Amen for this message. This is a very good lesson for my family. I love each one of them. They all have good qualities. The problem is they spend so much time focusing on each other's failures. They say things like you always and you never. It hurts my heart to hear those words and other similar phrases. I hope over time my family can heal from the past.
  • Dr. Amen, I wish I would have known of you twenty eight years ago. I admire what you do and your approach to Mind Health. Thanks for what you do!

    Genius story but it also shows how simple is our mental construction, I will remember your penguin forever! 🙂

    My 5 years daughter nailed alone. She tells me how much she loves me only when I do right with her and she’s so natural every time. She teach me to be aware of my behavior&care about myself 😢 I started to suspect me of ADHD : I multitask, I overreact I can’t focus when she’s all around…I am blessed she help me to be aware... Thanks Good

    My god what a touching story. It was a touching story within a touching story. Made me reflect on my relationship with my mother (non-existent at best) and with my daughter (amazing) and how I can make them better. Thanks dr. Amen!
  • @barbaramariemua
