What Do You Want Most for Your Children?
Leprechaun Test
If you saved the life of a leprechaun and he granted you one wish for your children, what would you choose?
Enormous wealth Fabulous good looks Superb athletic ability Great fame Genuine happiness
Leprechaun Test
Okay, the leprechaun says, pick the quality you think is most likely to produce genuine happiness:
Enormous wealth Fabulous good looks Superb athletic ability Great fame Deep and enduring personal
relationships
Leprechaun Test
Finally, he says, then you pick the quality most likely to produce deep and enduring personal relationships.
Enormous wealth Fabulous good looks Superb athletic ability Great fame Good character – trustworthiness, respect,
responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship
Leprechaun Test
Before you decide, think about this: Can you imagine having a deep and enduring personal relationship with someone who:
You cannot trust? Does not treat you with respect? You can’t count on because he/she is
irresponsible? Is consistently unfair? Is totally selfish; never thinks of others?
Leprechaun Lesson
Having meaningful and enduring personal relationships is the surest road to happiness and having good character is the surest road to good relationships.
Therefore, good character is the surest road to happiness.
