Having become a Father for the first time and witnessing first hand the needs, demands and behaviours of my new-born son, I was fortunate enough to learn an effective lesson from observing his behaviours. Babies don't run on anyone else's schedule. They require feeding, express their slightest displeasure through intensively loud crying and go to the toilet (minus the toilet) whenever they feel like it. There is no consideration over whether it is the right time or place for them to do so … they are babies of course! Seeing this day in and day out however, allowed me to appreciate how much the opposite is true for us as adults.
