Brad Schwartz’s 3 Pieces of Advice to His Kids: ‘Dream Big’

WashingtonExec asked the simple question to top area executives:

“If you could give your kids only three pieces of advice, what would they be?”

Today’s insight is from Bradley Schwartz, president and CEO of Blue Canopy Group.

Dream Big: Dream bigger than what you think is possible and have the courage to pursue those dreams.

Treat Others With Respect: Remember, it is never “what you do,” but “how you do it” that people remember.  Treat everyone with the dignity and the respect they deserve.

Value in Life is What You Give to Others: Your journey will traverse both hills and valleys. Remember, the value of life will be found not only by the height of the mountain climbed, but in the challenges you overcome, the contributions you make to society and the quality of people who call you friend.
