Tonight our family watched, "Remember the Titans." Great show! One point in the movie the team captain comments to one of the other football players about his attitude, that " it was the worst attitude he had have ever seen". The football player then comments back to the team captain, "Attitude reflects leadership, Captain."
That statement hit me. I sat back and thought about it. How many times have I gotten on my kids for doing, or saying something that reflected a bad attitude, but then thinking back, realized I had expressed ,at a previous time, the same bad attitude they did. They were just following my example.
I was reminded today that I need to be ever mindful of the attitude and example I am setting for my kids every day. I must set a good example of positive attitude first!
Tomorrow's challenge: have a positive attitude and example
