Better than money and fame, teaching martial arts to your children; giving them your time and confidence, is the best inheritance

About This Quote

If you had an opportunity to give your children more than money and fame, what would it be? What makes them feel that special and that significant? Your time and confidence. “Better than money and fame” means something very special and something people don’t often think of as a gift. It is the one thing no one can buy. And if you are lucky enough to have found someone who is worthy of your time and confidence, then your children will leave the world with their own sense of importance.
