There's Too Much Out There To Just Be Out There

Today On T.O.P.S

Growing up, did you know what your parents did for a living? You may not think this is important but it is. Can you take anything away from what you do that can be a productive life lesson for your children? Remember, children emulate what they see, positive or negative, this is why parents need to give them direction and constant insight into the positives of life, and directions they can go. We have to give them a legacy, something that will benefit them as they navigate through life, be it spiritual, financial or physical. With that being said are we focusing so much on setting up a living legacy for our children that we lose site on the fact that they need information now, because if they dont learn certain things now, that legacy that you've worked so hard to build can dissipate when turned over into their hands.

    I concur. We have to make it our business not just to set up a legacy for our children (&/or or children's children) but we must make sure that they understand what it takes to create that legacy. A true understanding of planning, goal setting, hard work, determination, tenacity, focus...must be not only be spoken to our children but demonstrated by our actions in order for them not just to sustain what we may leave behind but to take it to another level in accordance with their individual vision.

    I second that--sometimes we get so overwhelmed that we forget and forgetting could make for some serious repercussions later. That said...let's keep the legacy moving..action speaks louder than words--we all have to start with the man/woman in the mirror.
    God Bless
