Successful Parenting is a direct result of successful personal development. Understanding the relationship between mind, body, and emotions often results in creating responsible, critical thinking.
Research has shown over and over that good parenting involves only two basic components. Teaching your child to become competent and developing character.
A competent person knows how to self-manage. Developing good character consists of courage, effort and concern for others. How can you teach competence and good character if you haven’t developed these attributes for yourself?
Parents teach by demonstrating. Don’t underestimate the influence you have on your children. Continue to grow with personal development and the children in your life will benefit. You can’t touch it, but it affects how you feel. You can’t see it, but it’s there when you look in the mirror. You can’t hear it, but it’s there every time you talk about yourself. What is it? It’s self-esteem, competence and good character. Advocate personal development for yourself and those around you.
