Welcome to Legacy Dad
Welcome to Legacy Dad, this site is about striving to be the best
father and spouse that a man can be. It’s about being a role
model and setting the example in all areas of your life.
This site is not about winning blog awards or popularity contests
and I am not a writer with eloquent words and punchy buzz phrases.
Plain and Simple. It’s about being accountable and standing out from the rest:
Being a great husband.
Being a strategic father.
Being a role model for your children, friends and co-workers.
Being disciplined and smart with your finances and creating abundance.
And living your life by a higher code of morals and values.
It’s about designing a plan to attain self actualization and spiritual greatness.
These pillars are the bedrock to true character and do not change with society or the latest trends.
The journey to become a Legacy Dad is not an easy one and each person
progresses at their own pace. For this reason few will take this
journey or go the distance.
But
for the special 10% that commit to go the distance, you will look back
on your life and know that no stone was left unturned, no “what-ifs”
remain unchallenged and the rewards that come into the lives of your
family will forever change their existence and create a family legacy.
The Pillars of Legacy Dad: A Strong and Loving Marriage
Grace Based Parenting
Esse Quam Videri Character Traits
Navigator Leadership
Spiritual Morals as a Compass
Financial Security and Abundance
I was in search of authentic manhood and men who “walked the walk”
as well as a Christian parenting style that led my children to true
greatness. A style that created a close bond with my children, created
a more dynamic and happy family, instilled Christian values and other
life skills that my wife and I deemed important and prepared our
children in a number of certain areas for life.
I wanted my children to grow up to become mature and experienced in the following areas:
Spirituality – Faith
Morals and Values
Leadership
Marriage and Relationships
Finances and Investing
I was confused and I wanted a process, a map to follow to help this
style of parenting along. I wanted my children to have rights of
passage, to learn “real world” values and to culminate in a Legacy
Crossover, where my children were now congratulated on their progress
and reassured they were ready for the world.
This led to my wise grandfather
and a treasure chest of knowledge and wisdom accumulated from decades
of experience and leaders. My grandfather begin to mentor and teach me
but soon into the journey, God took him home. I then received his
journal and clues to the rest of the teachings. As a tribute and
continued study I started Legacy Dad to share this wisdom with other
fathers who also had these same questions.
The ultimate goal of Legacy Dad is to create this in our children: Security in their Hearts Significance in their lives Strength for the future The “Real” Essential Life Skills Spiritual Morals as A Compass
I invite you to come along for the ride and learn from my successes
and failures as well as learning from those who have walked before us
and picking up great nuggets of wisdom to apply in all areas of your
life.
I am by no means all knowing or an expert. I am just a guy, a
husband and father, with the goal of attaining True Greatness and
having some friends to come with me.
