Clint Eastwood sorely misses his tough youth, insisting America has gone soft since. The 78-year-old actor claims life was simpler and easier in his upbringing during the depression - when problems were solved using fists rather than a therapist’s couch. Eastwood tells the January edition of Esquire magazine, “Everyone’s become used to saying, ‘well, how do we handle it psychologically?’” In those days you punched the bully back and duked it out. People were tougher then.” I was a shy kid. But a lot of my childhood was spent punching the bullies out.”

That which truly distinguishes one person from another is the force that is called character. Character is more important than achievement. Character affects thoughts decision, words, attitudes, goals, relationships, and actions. As people build character, the outcomes of their lives become more successful.

A person with true character demonstrates qualities such as: honesty, reliability, diligence, respect and responsibility.

Respect, Responsibility, and Relationships

The True Basics For All Success In life

Everybody knows what the 3 R's of teaching are - reading, writing, and 'rithmetic.  
But educators don't totally understand that in order to teach these basic subjects
successfully,they must constantly be working to develop respect and responsibility
in their students.No longer can it be assumed that children develop these attitudes
at home.  Plus, teachers must learn how to build positive relationships with their
students. Strong teacher-student relationships naturally foster a positive and safe
learning environment where much learning will take place and where all students
will become capable, connected, and contributing members of their classrooms.
