My parents have always told me to work hard. My father was a friend, a very good friend, but when he needed to be a father, he was.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My parents pushed us very hard to work, both in the home, doing chores and cooking, and at school.
I think that I was raised by two of the best people ever. My mother and father are just the definition of hard work, like what hard work brings to you. They've taught me and my brothers and sisters to set your goals high and to give everything to reach them.
I'm a diligent person, and that came directly from having hardworking parents.
My parents instilled in me that life was going to be very difficult and that I'd have to work for everything.
Our father always made us work. I think that's the greatest thing a parent could ever do.
My parents were strict and taught me the proper fundamentals that I would use in my life. They taught me commitment to work hard.
My dad is such a good man, hard-working.
My parents were just as smart as I am, just as hard working if not harder; I think my father and grandfather were probably better men, yet I've been able to accomplish things professionally that they were not able to.
My parents were both born and raised in the Depression. They instilled great values about integrity and the importance of hard work, and I've taken that with me to every job.
I think I had really good parents. I got really lucky. They said, 'You're a woman; enjoy yourself and believe that you can do things.'
