According to a definition of the word family by Wikipedia, a family (from Latin: familia) is a group of people related either by consanguinity (by recognized birth), affinity (by marriage or other relationship), or co-residence or some combination of these.
People may define family in different ways and my also have differing views on who or what makes up their family.
One thing that all who care about family will evenly agree on is that It(The Family) should have love and unity which can make for success among its members.
I have been doing some reading on different ways that a family can be successful and will like to list 12 of these:
1. Communication:
is basically an exchange of thoughts and feelings between two or more persons.
2. Commitment:
the ability to stick to each other even when the going gets tough.
3. Teamwork:
is the ability to focus more on the solution to rather than attacking each other irrespective of the
cause of the problem.
4. Respect:
when members of a family show respect for each other, success is guaranteed, a lack of this on
the other hand will make for bad communication.
5. Forgiveness:
is so important that it can bring about respect, happiness and good health.
6. Values:
the ethical or personal standards by which each member of the family chooses to live.
7. Discipline:
How training, guidance and correction is given to members of the family - especially minors or
new members of the family.
8. Example:
When the more experienced members of a family live by what the say and teach, they are most likely going to get the support of other members of the family.
9. Trust:
Trustworthiness can earn you the trust of your family members as well as those of your friends
and employers
10. Goals:
the goals of a family whether short-term or long-term can boost the self-confidence of its
members, happiness when goals are achieved and can boost friendship.
11. Identity
is a combination of all the things that make you who you are which includes, your character,
values and belief - which can enable your stand up for what you believe as a member of the family.
12. Industriousness:
working hard to provide for one's personal needs and that of others.
