empower better family relationship

husband and wife empowering each other and their children with personal development

Self confidence is a must to every individual. It is something that we all need to develop, especially if we already have children and we want them to be at their very best at all times. Self Confidence, is one great way to keep each member of the family strong against all odds. Being confident is having the power and certainty to create our desires and dreams. It is a key ingredient in maximizing children's potential in academic achievement, social success, and personal happiness. For parents, it keeps their relationship stronger and better.

We all want to protect our children, keep them from harms way and safeguard them from danger. We can absolutely do that, by showing them we have enough confident about ourselves, and as a parent. However, I am so aware that is easier said than done. But we must do it, if we don't want to be a failure for the rest of our lives. Only you can help yourself, and your kids to be successful in their life.

There are lots of books, movies, and workshop where you can encourage your children to joined. Ofcourse, as a Parent, you have to be very supportive in all manners; Financially, Mentally, Emotionally, Physically and Spiritually. You can also, as a parent, joined social clubs in your village to learned more about life. No matter how old we are, we still need to learned a lot of things about life. It is also one great way to boost our self esteem. If we don't have enough experience about life, then we can never be matured enough to be a parent to our children. Believe me, no matter who you are, even if you are the well known person in the world, you still need to be flexible on learning and gaining knowledge.

As a parents, we don't want our children to have a very low self-esteem. For sure you we all want them to try new things, belive about themselves; socialize with other kids;share their joy with you and have so many great friends. Let them read books, so that they can internalized the situation. Hear them whenever they talk to you, so you can assist them on expressing their ideas.

I am so aware, that it isn't common for children to love books, as much as we do. We'd rather watch tv with our kids, or simply stroll at the park. It is also a cool idea,but then we should not take reading for granted. Spend time reading along with your kids, and have a great tate-to-tate with them.

It is known that a child needs affection and love. If you and your partner, doesn't love each other anymore, expect a low self esteem to your children. Don't be suprised if you realized that you are also beginning to hate yourself. It is inevitable that arguments, occur for each family. Just keep in mind, don't let anger overweigh you. For as long as you can manage to remain calm, do so. A happy living environment is essential in areas of personal confidence and personal valuation. If a child has been constantly criticized, bullied or ignored during early childhood they will have much less child self-esteem than children who are praised, encouraged, listened to and valued. Often it is the case that a child hasn't had or cannot respond to the praise or encouragement from a parent or teacher alone. This means that it is important that every child has the confidence within themselves to appreciate their own self worth and specialties.

As couples, you can also help each other to have a healthy relationship by dating, and going to cozy and romantic places, atleast once a month. Taking wacky pixs together is also a stress reliever. Joining Sports Club along with your kids is one great way to empower great personality; Communicating and Compromising to things that each of you has to improved; Learn to Identify how you can help each other be a tough person,ever; Make sure to be obedient to each other, and be flexible for different changes in your life.

Good character, is the best gift you can share to each other. Nothing can beat that! It's also a key to success! You wanna be successful, change your thought and be flexible in any changes.I hope that from this day onward, you will start to empower great personality with your partner, along with your kids.

Happy Heart's DAy!

WILDFLOWER

From this day onward, I will treasure the meaning of this song. For this was dedicated to me by one of my so special friend. A friend in whom I am learning a lot of great things about life,being a mom and a future wife to Mr Right:)

She's faced the hardest times
You can imagine
And many times her eyes
Fought back the tears
And when her youthful world
Was about to fall in
Each time her slender shoulders
Bore the weight of all her fears
And the song that no one hears
Still rings in midnight silence
In her ears

CHORUS:
Let her cry
For she's a lady
Let her dream
For she's a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She's a free and gentle flower
Growing wild
And if by chance that I
Should hold her
Let me hold her
For a time
And if allowed but one possession
I will pick her from the garden
To be mine
Be careful how you touch her
For she'll awaken
For sleep's the only freedom
That she knows
And when you look into her eyes
You won't believe
The way she's always payin'
For a debt she never owes
And the silent wind still blows
That only she can hear
And so she goes

CHORUS:
Let her cry
For she's a lady
Let her dream
For she's a child
Let the rain fall down upon her
She's a free and gentle flower
Growing wild

I AM A LEADER!

The most important thing to consider, and ponder if you really want to become a leader, is that you can prove to people that you're not afraid to take any risk. You are well defined goal achiever. A person who can stand up against all "odds". A man whose so willing to accept all corrections and remain hopeful. That's what you call a true leader! Ofcourse, patience as adage says,is a virtue...and for leadership sake,it's a must.

It's easier said than done. Many could look so sincere as they claimed to be a leader. Let's give some people a benefit of the doubt, they actually are sincere at that moment when they are talking. When the odds gets along their way, then that's the time you can say, ooppsss....they have forgotten their pledges.

As for me, it is so upsetting, when a claimed to be leader was caught backsliding and preferred to be just a follower. I may suggest, that its better for an individual not to claimed that HE IS A LEADER, unless he has proven his worth. Swallow your fear and gained experience before you claimed to be a leader!

Consider reaching out for a mentor, listing down your failures and avoiding to bounce back over the same mistakes. Be aggressive and assertive. Take time to think before you act. Always ask for guidance, no matter how smart you are. Inspired yourself by reading books of being a good leader. Follow the steps of WELL KNOWN successful leader. Believe in yourself, and have faith at all times.

Being a leader starts from within, from the people your dealing with everyday of your life. Being a leader doesn't necessary mean you have to be the most intelligent person in the world. Infact, you can be an ordinary person, uneducated or even the youngest among the group. You can be a leader, if your mind and heart is willing. All it takes is willingness. You will have the gots, if you will explore your skills of being a leader. Let no one ever intimidate you.

Every individual has different strategies of being a leader. What matters most is that whatever style you follow, you gained respect. If not, then maybe there's something you ought to change. Something, you ought to get rid off. Examine your values and goals in life. Treat the people you wanted to lead with respect. You can never be a leader of no one believes in you, and no one is willing to support you.

Don't pretend to be someone you are not, not even withheld your hand to something you are uncapable of doing so. That's why, I mentioned earlier, to think before you act, and always ask for guidance. No Man is an Island...

Now that I have shared my best knowledge about being a leader, I must confess that this has been my struggle. I have been so scared of being blamed and rejected. I was once so scared of competition. Thank God, to all my mentors, who have made me realize that I have the skills to be a leader. I just have to conquer and swallow my fears.

Live life to the fullest, and be a LEADER!
