[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 690819, member: 17461"] Do you think it could be that your son sees the successes of his brothers and parents and it scares him? We don't see the times of decision for our role models. We think they have always been confident. We think they did not have the same questions and uncertainties we do. We lose faith in ourselves. We protect ourselves from failure in the only way we know. We don't try. I wonder whether talking to him about how unsure we all are sometimes, and how we never do know where our efforts will end. Maybe, if your son is a reader, biographies of successful businessmen or women would be helpful? Each of these people will have fallen short of their own expectations again and again. Or Brene Brown's Rising Strong. [MEDIA=youtube]oqTFx8Co1Do[/MEDIA] Cedar [/QUOTE]
