Personal power and complacency cannot coexist. We are so focused and worried about what we can leave our kids financially for an inheritance but it’s not about what we can leave them it’s what we leave IN them that really counts. Philosophies and parenting styles come and go but true biblical values and virtues will always remain. We must be careful we are not choosing to excuse poor behavior. We need to challenge our children to be better daily. Teamwork, self-care, seeing possibilities where other people see problems, motivation, time management, and kindness are just a few traits we must teach them to live IN them to succeed. Character development should be our top priority so when they do well they are able to manage because they have what it takes IN them and then they can not only flourish but can continue to make a  difference in the world.
