Motivation Monday: The Real Coaches & Teacher...

By
Real Estate Agent with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties 01238708

I love John Wooden and his lifetime of observations. I keep the little book next to me and when I have a moment to come up for air. I read a line or two from his book.

www.endrebarath.com

So, with that said let me share some of his wisdom here:

 

" ... a father and mother must be there to set an example for their children, strong and positive models of what to be and how to behave when the youngsters grow up...."

"...being a role model is the most powerful form of educating. Youngsters need good models more than they need critics. It is one of a parent's greatest responsibilities and opportunities..."

Now with that said I was lucky to have parents who were great role models, and my father did not neglect me because hew so busy working, he always made time for me.

Hi Endre- this may be why I've always been drawn to sports.  Coaches, parents, and mentors are so important in a child's life. They're there to encourage, support, and teach.

Hi Endre,

There are some people that are true legends on and off the sports scene.  John Wooden was one of those people.  My dad played BB for Wichita State and when we moved to California, the TV would be on any time there was a UCLA game.

Endre Barath, Jr. - I believe strongly parent(s) are the most important "role model" in educating children. Wearing both the mother/father role is the toughest job in the world and most people who never experienced it as a parent or child can even imagine how challenging and hard it is, especially when support is not available.

Oh, I loved him (and his book!), Endre. He was certainly a great father, coach & mentor and there just don't seem to be many coaches like him these days, dos there? 

Like you, I had wonderful role model parents and feel ever so blessed to have had them in my life. Thankfully I still have my Daddy who continues to inspire me daily.
