Okay…here’s a little quiz for you! What four words are most often used to lead kids down the road to that gray overpopulated land of Nothingdom? Where’s Nothingdom, you ask? Well, it’s somewhere between below average, and downright failure!

These four words will leave you standing still while successful people pass you by on their way to productive futures!

Give up? The four words that will buy a one-way ticket to Nothingdom are, “Do I have to?” You know what I mean—And whether you’re saying it or just thinking it, I can tell you that attitude never made anyone special. Develop instead a “get-it-done” attitude. You’ll gain respect from others and gain a sense of responsibility that will help to guarantee your success in life!
