Have you ever watched a stunt driver race his motorcycle up a steep ramp and into the air? Maybe he did a double backflip with a bunch of twists and turns.
Those crazy stunts require an incredible amount of control. If the stuntman were to leave the ramp at the wrong angle, he’d land off target and experience an awful wipeout.
To succeed in life, your son also needs to be in control. Because boys are usually impulsive, self-control is one of the hardest lessons for them to learn. But a little self-control goes a long way in helping him steer through the twists and turns of life.
So teach your son the importance of self-control. The more self-control he has, the greater his chance of soaring high in life.
