Never tell him "Don't CRY!" Instead, ask him why he's crying.

Praise them often. No matter at what age, I think this is important. Just make sure the words are truth. If they're not, they can tell.

Teach him (model) a strong work ethic. Show him if he wants something bad enough to work to get it.

Oops I ought to have added teach him to never say "That's not my job (ever)." If a task need to be done show him that nothing is below him and how to humble himself and do what needs to be done no matter what position he holds in the company.

Ok time for a little bragging here.

All three of my girls learned to fish from me and love doing it. Their favorite dates were to have a guy take them fishing.

One of my daughters knows how to change her own flat tire.

One of my daughters more about the workings of a interna combustion engine that a lot of guys.

My son can change the car oil, fix a flat, his favorite wrench is his multi-tool. He too loves to fish.

I have seen more softball games, softball tournaments, marching band performances, plays, music performances, wrestling tournaments, rugby scrums, etc. than I ever thought possible and I loved every minute of it. It saddened me when my daughter decided not to play softball in college.

I have loved every minute and never thought that I missed a tv program or time to myself. I chose to bring them in to this world and it has been my responsibility to make sure they knew they were loved and important.

Teach him nobody but God is perfect, expect failure, to do the best he can with all things, and to learn from his failures as well as his success.
