A journalist once asked Li Ka-shing, one of Asia’s most successful entrepreneurs, what made him a business legend. Was it hard work, intelligence, or communication skills? Li answered with a single word: “Vision.”
Vision is not just ambition—it is the height and breadth of one’s spirit. Liu Bei gathered heroes like Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang because he carried a vision to restore the Han dynasty. If we want our children to achieve greatness, nurturing their inner vision is the foundation.
Li credited his childhood exposure to Chinese classics such as the *Three Character Classic*, *Laozi*, and *Zhuangzi*. Though he only completed junior high school, these works shaped his character and mindset for life.
Many great minds—writers, scientists, leaders, and entrepreneurs—were raised on these timeless texts. For boys, they teach integrity and resilience. For girls, they cultivate grace and self-worth. More than knowledge, these classics build character.
From the *I Ching* to the *Analects*, each text offers wisdom for living wisely, leading with virtue, and growing with purpose. May every child who encounters these classics discover a deeper version of themselves.
