I think the greatest challenge between child and parent is communication.

You shouldn't feel guilty about taking time for yourself. Every so often, everyone needs to give themselves a big ol' bear hug and treat themselves to some TLC.

From Sean Covey

You should see my baby pictures. My cheeks hung off my face like water balloons. You can imagine how often I was teased.

From Sean Covey

You are free to choose what you want to make of your life. It's called free agency or free will, and it's your birthright.

From Sean Covey

Paradigms are like glasses. When you have incomplete paradigms about yourself or life in general, it's like wearing glasses with the wrong prescription. That lens affects how you see everything else.

From Sean Covey

One of the greatest gifts a parent can give a child is to help them find their talents.

From Sean Covey

Ask any successful person, and most will tell you that they had a person who believed in them... a teacher, a friend, a parent, a guardian, a sister, a grandmother. It only takes one person, and it doesn't really matter who it is.

From Sean Covey

Seeing things from a different point of view can help us understand why other people act the way they do. We too often judge people without having all the facts.

From Sean Covey

Don't struggle about the struggle. In other words, life's full of ups and downs. So if you're struggling, don't worry, everyone else has or will at some point.

From Sean Covey

Stop being a critic and be a light; don't be a judge, be a model. I think we are far too critical. I think the best way to correct behavior is to accentuate and affirm positive behavior and to ignore negative behavior. Generally speaking, there is a time to correct, of course; but my biggest advice would be, 'Affirm your child.'
