If you have children, you likely have goals and desires as a parent. You want your children to grow up to be honest, hard-working, independent, happy adults who know how to think and provide for themselves. At least, that's what we want for our kids.
Before beginning on any journey, you have to know where you want to finish. Parenting, in our opinion, has to be one of the most challenging and rewarding adventures of life - but in order to help guide your decisions as a parent, you need to know where you want to take your children.
There is the desire... now the question becomes, how do we reverse engineer that goal into everyday tangible and realistic steps so that we have something to do every day?
Well, that's what we are going to be talking about on today's podcast as we review the Inc. article "Science Says the Most Successful Kids Have Parents Who Do These 9 Things."
