IF YOU'RE READING THIS, THANK YOU. THAN K YOU FOR ALREADY BEING A GREAT DAD BY RESEARCHING AND SEEKING NEW INFORMATION A BOUT PARENTING. FATHERHOOD IS A PERSONALITY TRAIT THAT EFFECTS ALL OF US. YOUR BABY CAN GROW UP TO BE MY CHILD'S DOCTOR, PROFESSOR, OR PRESIDENT. WE NEVER KNOW HOW L IFE WILL GO FOR OUR CHILDREN, BUT ONE THING WE DO KNOW IS THAT ALL OF OUR KIDS MAKE UP THE FUTURE WORLD. IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY AS PARENTS TO DO OUR PART IN CREATING A BETTER TOMORROW, AND TAK ING FATHERHOOD SERIOUSLY IS THE VERY FIRST STEP. PATIENCE, SELF-AWARENESS, DISCIPLINE, CREATIVITY, SAVINGS, CRITICAL THINKING, DIET, REPETITION. THESE ARE THE IDEALS I WANT TO SIT DOWN WITH MY FELLOW FATHERS AND DISCUSS ON A MEANINGFUL LEVEL. I PREACH THESE PRINCIPLES BECAUSE THEY'R E UN DOUBTEDLY THE CORNERSTONES OF FATHERHOOD. WHAT IS PARENTHOOD? IT'S NEVER-ENDING AND THE REASON YOU'RE HE RE; IT'S THE REASON WE'RE ALL HERE SO IT'S THE MOST COMMON AND IMPORTANT JOB AN A DULT CAN HAV E. I'M NOT HERE TO TELL YOU HOW TO JUST BE A BETTER FATHER, BUT TO OPEN YOUR EYES TO SEE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE THE BEST DAD YOU CAN BE. THE TRUTH IS, PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, SPIRITUALLY, FINANCIALLY, AND M ENTA LLY YOUR LIFE AS A MAN IS ABOUT TO CHANGE, AND WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER LIKE BROTHERS. YOU DESERVE TO KNOW EVERYTHING I'VE LEAR NED ABOUT BEING A DAD AND EMBRACING YOUR GOOD AND DAD HABITS. SO, WELCOME TO THE CIRCLE OF FATHERHOOD.
