After the success of my first warrior’s guide to parenting, I couldn’t help but feel like there was something missing; a hole in the story that was begging to be told. It wasn’t until I started to read the responses from people who were promising to go out and teach their warriors how to take control of their own lives that I realized what an important piece of the puzzle I had forgotten.

Although it was apparent that my parents had gone out of their way to tell me things that would empower me in my life, it was often the things that they didn’t say that had the most impact on me. It was when the motivational talks were over, and life was waiting for me, that their quiet confidence was a constant guide in my success and health.

The way that my parents treated me like a normal person, and never emphasized my disease is what kept my mind in the right place and allowed me to focus my energy into other aspects of my life. They provided me with the basic knowledge of my own infinite potential, and it was up to me to apply it to my own life situations.

If my parents were to have told me repeatedly about how I could overcome my disease if I practiced positive thinking and fought hard enough, then it would have felt forced and out of place to me. It’s when minds are young and observant that this kind of desperation is easily sensed by a child, and taken as a sign of their parents’ own weakness and fear.

If one wishes to have the best possible impact on their child’s life then they must act as an example and role model, constantly demonstrating through the application of these techniques in their own lives. The very act of being positive, and never wavering in your belief in the power of intention, will be more than enough to uphold the vibration that is conducive to an environment of positive manifestation for your young one.

Children are immensely more observant and intuitive than adults. Going out of our way to pound an idea into their heads is often unnecessary and can be counterproductive. Your own quiet confidence in their abilities is usually all they will need. When they are troubled about something in specific, then one must only refer back to the general rule of the universe by saying that we have the ability to craft any kind of outcome that we desire, as long as we believe we can.

If man has the power to change his life through the use of his own intent, then imagine the possibilities when two people can focus their intent towards the same goal. The simple act of believing and being confident in the abilities of your child will offer a foundation of strength and confidence that will empower them to achieve what they wish.

If what you wish is for your child to have the utmost confidence in his own abilities, then you must first build and maintain the confidence within yourself that will facilitate this kind of result.

“If I have lost confidence in myself, I have the universe against me”

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
