Good Fathers Don’t Raise Weak Sons

Part three of a series talking through a solid list of 20 'success habits'

Go back and catch the earlier ones if you’ve missed them. Or you can dive in right here and decide later if you want to catch up on the others.

This week covers several success habits, if you had to throw them all into one bucket, you might go with a category of skills that employers call ‘soft skills’, the sort of things that entry-level jobs help young squabs become halfway employable when they plunge into the real workforce.

We’ve cover a pretty big range, including attitude, the ‘unfairness’ of life, expectations, respect, handling yourself in emotionally-charged situations, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

If you’ve got yourself sorted in these areas, you’re a long way down that road to success. If you don’t, you’ve got your laces untied at the starting line and are probably wondering who to blame for your slow start. The good news is, every one of these issues, if you see fit to change them in your life, can be changed for the better.

Or you can blow them off and ask yourself why you keep getting whacked in the huevos with the pool cue of life.

Your call.

While you’re at it, here’s Doug’s latest book:

The Bible And Hunting

If a person looked to Scripture and paid particular attention to the passages within the Bible that address the topic of hunting, then they’d walk away thinking not only is hunting animals tolerated but it is endorsed by God. And that’s exactly what this little book is about: proving that God, from Genesis to Revelation, is extremely cool with hunters and hunting. I’ll go out on a biblical limb and claim right off the bat that you cannot show me, through the balance of the Bible, that the God of the Scripture is against the responsible killing and the grilling of the animals He created. ~Doug Giles
