When my boys doubt themselves, this is the conversation we have… My husband’s favourite saying is “back yourself.” He’s said it so many times… As soon as one of them says they can’t, or it’s too hard, my husband is quick to turn it around. He should be a motivational speaker! I hope the kids take this saying with them as they grow in to adults. We all need to be reminded of this sometimes – dream a little bigger, try a little harder.

The quote above puts it perfectly. I’m going to print it out and stick it on the fridge for the boys to see.

    This is a great saying, but the “Back yourself” one of your husband’s is spot on.

    Katrina.
    A post that is brilliant in its simplicity.
    Self confidence is a wonderful gift you can give yourself.
    This along with resilience and respect for self and others are the mantra I repeat constantly to my boys as I guide them on their journey to becoming gorgeous young men.
    I’ll stick this quote on my fridge too! Thank you. Monique x
