What You’ll Learn
03:31 This is the beginning of the story of David Meltzer and his dad. His dad abandoned him when he was 5 years old. One of the biggest wounds for David Meltzer was his dad forgetting his birthday and lying to him.
05:41 David Meltzer tells the story of the gift his dad gave him at age 30. A gift that David took as an offense but that his dad tried to explain the meaning to him as his dad saw that David Meltzer was just like him at that age. Clearly with that comparison David got even angrier.
08:31 David Meltzer says he didn’t have the best dad but he did change his life (that’s a great quote!) in the end David Meltzer put his attention and value on the wrong things, he had to lose everything from millions of dollars to his family to understand his dad’s gift and get his life in order.
