🏆 THE RIGHT THING

Most people don’t remember anything that happened in their life before the age of 7.

This is called “childhood amnesia.”

If you’re a parent, this means that everything you do for your child for their first 7 years is essentially deleted from their memory.

Chances are, they won’t remember the:

• Trips you took

• Gifts you purchased

• Diapers you changed

• Meals you cooked

• Late nights you stayed up when they were sick

Still, you do it even on the days when you don’t really want to.

Why? Because it’s the right thing to do.

No one is going to give you a trophy for doing the right thing. Nor should they.

Whether kids remember your actions or not doesn’t matter.

What matters is that you will remember if you did the right thing or not.

Continue to be the example in all you do.

Live to the standard you set for yourself.

Especially on the days when you don’t feel like it.
