We really appreciate everyone who follows Precious Treasures.  To show our appreciation we want to give one of our followers an awesome gift.  We have two options to choose from and wanted to get your initial thoughts.  Which gift would you like?

Free ticket to the EntreLeadership in Arizona!
EntreLeadership is a simulcast hosted by Dave Ramsey and is a premier leadership training program where he personally teaches individuals, teams, and businesses how to grow.  We think this would be an awesome treat for some of our parents and followers.

3 Ideas to Involve Your Kids in Family New Year’s Goals

Goal Setting

Well, it’s already Feburary and the joke is; fitness clubs start their attendance decline after an awesome January. Even though we experience the ups and downs of sticking to our goals it is still better to set goals than not to set goals. 

So how about your Precious Treasures? Are you helping your kids in setting their goals? 

We think we have 3 great tips to help you start your kids setting goals early. The theory here is that they will be better at executing their goals as they get older because you helped them establish the practice at an early age. While we don't want to put 100lb bags of pressure on them at an early age, we still think it’s healthy for them to build the habit. 

1) Reflection. Examine opportunities to better oneself. 
Sounds too deep for kids. It is, but that’s why you are reading this and not them : )
