Define Success As Faithfulness and Perseverance

One of the dangers that parents face, especially fathers, is the tendency to want their children to win, or at least, not to fail. But failing is not a bad thing. Of course, failing without effort or failing and then not trying again is a bad thing. Throughout life your children will fail – how well, or how badly, they deal with it will affect their destinies.

I often tell my son, “Winning is not about “not” losing, it’s about not giving up.”
