Culver Academies
Yesterday I spoke to about 800 students at Culver Academies in Culver, Indiana. It’s a private boarding school next to a beautiful lake. The students and faculty were awesome there and I had a great time. Even with a creepy painting in the guest house I stayed in!
Much like a lot of other top private schools in the country a lot of young people at Culver are stressed out. It’s the same weird competition where it seems like everyone is trying to see who can handle more stress, more tests, less sleep and go through more, but like I say in my presentations no one wins that competition. I talked to 28 of the student leaders at Culver about this and we all agreed that they will try to set an example of a much better competition like oh I don’t know I got all of my work done ad am going to sleep or have fun now!
It’s also interesting to me how a lot of people may think that this is only happening at their school or in their lives, but really it’s a phenomenon that isn’t just in high schools or colleges, but in workplaces and affecting just about everyone at any age. It’s why taking time for your mental health is so important and vital to our survival. I wish everyone the best with finding that! Thanks again Culver!
