Lead by Example

“Example has more followers than reason. We unconsciously

imitate which please to the character we most admire.”

Christian Nevell Bovee 1820 – 1904 American Author, Lawyer     

 

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

Lead by example

 

As children we follow the example of our parents.

 

Children will emulate the behavior of their parents . . . . in their daily relationships and actions. When you meet polite child you will find . . . . that their parents are polite as well.

 

The children will mirror the parents in many things . . . . like the type of food they eat . . . . their choice of ice cream . . . . the types of TV shows they watch. If the parents read to the children when they’re young they will grow up to become a reader.

 

When parents nurturers and encourages their children . . . . and finds the time to spend quality time with them. As an adult they will have a stronger family bond . . . . and become nurturing parents.

 

As a parent we have a powerful influence on our children. They will follow your examples into adulthood . . . . and mirror your behavior as an adult.

 

We can tell children what to do . . . . and as they get older they tend to listen far less. Children are far more likely to follow the example of their parents.

 

Lead by example . . . . and leave your footprint in the sands that your child will want to follow in.

So true and critical for all Parents to keep in mind. Our Children are the future, and it is up to us to help make sure they are instilled with goodwill, and taught positive qualities. It is up to us as the Adults to set an example and to keep that in mind everyday. Great Post, Lou Ludwig. 

It is important to set example for all Children. Your own, your nieces, nephews etc..

Lou, not that I consider my teammates as children, but the same principles apply to professional leadership as well.  The best lesson is the one that people see you doing ... not necessarily the ones about which you speak!  Thanks for the insight ...

Lou Ludwig Funny that as I do 'lead by example' my other personas seem to get confused and don't follow me! As always; a great post from you, Thanks!

These are very true words. I tried to do that with my daughter, and for the most part, it worked out very well.
