As children grow, they naturally face problems with friends, schoolwork, teachers, sports, etc. As adults, we guide them through these times and help them see events from a new perspective. Although it’s not always easy, the bumps and bruises of childhood prepare children for some of the challenges they will eventually face in adulthood. Facing difficult times while young will hopefully give our children the perspective and wisdom to recognize and appreciate true friendships and actively practice gratitude in their lives.
By helping them through these times, we teach them to…
see the good in every person and every situation.
lead with love.
look for sources of wisdom.
deepen their confidence and belief in themselves.
recognize that their true source of strength comes from within.
We are growing towards our focus. Your focus sets the tone every day of your life. There will always be worries, challenges and upsetting experiences, at every age and stage of life. By making the choice to see the good in every situation, we set out to create a life we love.
As Grandmaster Lu says, “You have the power. Change your perspective and you change the path.”
