Greatest thing you can teach your child

The greatest gift afterloving your child unconditionally is to teach them how to think for themselves.

We don’t need them to be our clones. We don’t need them to be robots- repeat everything they hear in school and from other people.

The gift of thinking for yourself critically and analytically is something I strive to give my son.

“Simply making time for family dinner can go a long way, Bell explains in a TED talk: “Those who had regular dinner together as a family are 41% more likely to be happy and 43% more likely to earn over $100,000 a year.””

They plan out the day and write things down

“Those who maintain both a calendar and to-do list are 289 percent more likely to be millionaires, as compared with those who have no real set schedule,” writes Bell. He also found that successful people “document insights.”

Case in point: Self-made billionaires Bill Gates and Richard Branson are devoted note-takers. “When inspiration calls, you’ve got to capture it,” says Branson.

I’m sure my fellow dads working double shifts will dig this. 

I work long days now so I can have my spouse at home with my son. 

No nanny or daycare.

I grind so he can get that perfect love and care.

I also invest so that this can end one day soon.

I took my first residual check of 2017 and reinvested it. 

Dads, build an empire!

DADS OF WAR!!!

You’re a DAD? Good be a MAN and set the example

Not much to say here .

He said it just right.

Love your kid’s mom.  Period. 

Your example sets the  tone. How you treat the mother of your children will show your children how to love others.  

Live what you tell the kids, don’t be a do as I say not as I do dad.

Step up to the plate and hit a home run. 

Your wife deserves it.

Your kids need it.
