Want Your Kids to Be Their Best in Life? Parents, You Must Do This One Thing Right Now!

Kids can see you fail, falter or succeed. The most important thing is that they see you doing it! Kids will become your mirror. The absolute best thing you can do is be who you want your kids to become

I teach my kids by taking my effort with me every day. It’s OK if I’m not perfect or that every mission isn’t a wild success. They see that I don’t quit and they see that I, too, am human. I have hurts and joys just like everyone else. 

Hopefully by showing my kids what it’s like to strive for my goals, they will always have goals to strive for!

Isn't it amazing what kids pick up when we don't think they are even paying attention. @tweenspot. My kids are in their 20s and I'm now starting to see some of values come out in their choices. (And I'm also seeing some of my bad habits in them!) :)
