Be Modest, Be Humble, Be Simple.

When My Kids Wanted To Give Up On Things, I Wouldn't Let Them, And Those Are Lifelong Lessons.

For My Senior Prom, My Father Finally Said I Could Go - As Long As I Was Home By 9pm! That Was Around The Time That Most People Were Heading Out. When I Was Little I Was So Mad At Them All The Time. Why Can't I Do This? Why Are There So Many Rules? But Looking Back Now, My Parents Gave Me The Foundation To Have So Many Choices In Life.

I Think The Biggest Difference Is That I've Noticed Western Parents Seem Much More Concerned About Their Children's Psyches, Their Self-esteem, Whereas Tough Immigrant Parents Assume Strength Rather Than Fragility In Their Children And Therefore Behave Completely Differently.

Everything I've Ever Done That's Valuable Is Something I Was Afraid To Try.

Every Day That You Don't Practice Is A Day You're Getting Worse.
