"To raise positive kids, we as parents..." - Quote by Zig Ziglar

“It is not your aptitude, but your attitude, that determines your altitude.”

“When we separate the word business into its component letters, B-U-S-I-N-E-S-S, we find that U and I are both in it. In fact, if U and I were not in business, it would not be business. Furthermore, we discover that U comes before I in business and the I is silent-it is to be seen, not heard. Also, the U in business has the sound of I, which indicates it is an amalgamation of the interests of U and I. When they are properly amalgamated, business becomes harmonious, profitable, and pleasant.”

“Miserable people focus on what they hate about their life. Happy people focus on what they love about their life.”

“Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; for these only gave them life, those the art of living well.”

“If our children are to approve of themselves, they must see that we approve of ourselves.”

“When a child has a dream and a parent says, "It's not financially feasible; you can't make a living at that; don't do it," we say to the child, run away from home... You must follow your dream. You will never be joyful if you don't. Your dream may change, but you've got to stay after your dreams. You have to.”

“While children are struggling to be unique, the world around them is trying all means to make them look like everybody else.”

“The greatest invention in the world is the mind of a child.”

“No child should be brought up to suppose that its food and clothes come down from heaven or are miraculously conjured from empty space by papa. Loathsome as we have made the idea of duty (like the idea of work) we must habituate children to a sense of repayable obligation to the community for what they consume and enjoy, and inculcate the repayment as a point of honor.”
