"Four Steps to achievement: Plan purposefully, Prepare prayerfully, Proceed positively, Pursue persistently"
-William A. Ward
There are so many decisions in life that shape the people we become. The decisions we make as young people starting out our lives as adults can have repercussions that last a lifetime. While we all have the possibility of redemption, coming out the gate using practical wisdom is definitely the way to go. I have seen in my lifetime examples of people making one mistake as an eighteen year old man that cost him not only his future but his parents future as well. A very close family member of mine whom I tried to mold into a outstanding member of society has just spent his 19th birthday in jail for making poor decisions. Our young people must learn to make rational decisions, and be strong enough to stand by those decisions in the face of adversity. As parents we must prepare our children to make quality decisions and that will give them the tools to succeed.
