Influence

---

---

When I was young I remember how my parents were so strict about the kind of friends I had and the kind of things I am I supposed to do, I used to thank my mom till now for not allowing me to have bad friends because it would’ve been one of those things that we have affected my life because I have friends that they wish they same level of strictness and their influence is affecting their life to date and most parents understood the assignment, they know that the kind of influences your child are exposed to early will determine their life and that is why they are so strict about everything but most parents don’t always use these on themselves.

most of the things parents experiment on their children about influence are right but they never take the time to experiment all these things on themselves, some parents have friends that are destroying their marriage, and some listen to music that is not good for the ears to some they experiment so much on their children but they are not experimenting all these things on themselves and this is because they believe that they did not need it, they believe that they can handle any forms of influence in their life which is a lie.

We are indeed different

We are indeed different and we have a lot of experience when it comes to life, we have some situations that we have direct experience with and we also have the ones that happen to people close to us, most times it is easy for us to make decisions for people around us but we are very stubborn to change even when we know that most of the things we are doing are not rights, we believe we’ve chosen our own paths and that’s how it should be but who told us we can’t change. What’s most parents don’t remember is that they also have an influence on the child they trying to change.

Most people know the truth without telling them, they know what is right but the problem that they have is the willpower to do what is right. How do you know what is right for your children when you are also lacking in the same aspect, we believe everything is hard when we’ve not even given it a try. It is easy for us to know our biggest influences without even thinking too much but what is not easy for us is the ability to choose what is right, if we can use the same strategy that we are using on our children we will definitely become a better person within a short period of time

The excuse

What I have heard people say all the time is that it is easy for children to change and be influence because they are young but that is a lie and why it is hard for anybody to change is because they are not determined and are not ready, influence will have the same effects on you whether you are young or old, it is very important to overcome all these excuses and choose what is better for us which is to let go of our bad influence and also experiment on our self.

Thanks for your time.
