Jackson shares some valuable advice about how to advance towards your goals with a smile on your face.Lessons: 1. To raise your children to be resilient, practice pushing them out of their comfort zone gradually through time, but not without building a solid foundation of security and love when they’re young. 2.

If you can persist in every area of your life, physically, mentally, morally, you’ll succeed.
