Teaching my boys to shake a man's hand properly

Been working with my oldest on a firm handshake and looking people in the eye. It matters. My father taught me this and I'm passing it down. You can tell a lot about a man by how he presents himself and treats others. Started young with my boys doing the same. It's one of those foundational things that separates boys who grow into real men from everyone else.

This is so important. My dad drilled this into me and now I'm doing the same with my kids. It opens doors for them in ways they won't understand until later.

This right here. My boys are getting to that age and I'm realizing how much they pick up from watching how you carry yourself. That handshake and eye contact thing goes a long way.

Passing down what your old man taught you, that's the real legacy stuff. Love that you're being intentional about it.

A firm handshake and eye contact say so much about character and confidence. You're teaching him skills that will serve him his whole life.

Carrying on what your father taught you. That's the circle right there.
