As a parent, you are the most influential person in your child's life. As mentioned in many other posts & articles on The Intentional Father, your children are always watching, observing, learning, mimicking both the good and bad.

Earlier in the same chapter, @ryanmichler also says "Influence is nothing more than one person's ability to impact another's thoughts or behaviors."

Your influence is your daily life.

You, your words, actions, what music you listen to, how you interact with people on a daily basis, how you react to people and situations are factors that ALL impact your child's thoughts and behaviors.

How are you going to wield your influence?

Let this thought soak into your mind and surface as a daily reminder to live intentionally and be the positive influence your child needs and deserves.

Last, I have not yet completed it, but having listened to Ryan Michler for years, knowing who he is and what he stands for, and having read his first book (Sovereignty), I highly recommend checking out his new book The Masculinity Manifesto.
