Characters of Character: When a child feels proud of themselves, everything in life comes a little bit easier. They feel better about the person that they are and they want to continue trying to be the best that they can be. They take pride in themselves and their actions, which allows them to succeed in others aspects of their life. A lot of children don’t have someone there to tell them that they should be proud of themselves and everything that they do. What advice do you have for children who do not have someone in their lives to encourage them and tell them to be proud of themselves?
Kellan: Even when we are alone it is important to give of ourselves – selfless giving always makes the individual feel better as there is always someone worse off.
Characters of Character: What do you feel your greatest accomplishment is in your life and why are you proud of yourself for it?
Kellan: Using the platform I have to influence others to make a positive impact upon the world around them – helping, serving, giving whenever possible.
Characters of Character: Was there ever a point in your life when you didn’t have confidence in yourself?
Kellan: My Junior year I didn't go out for Varsity football because I didn't have much time and didn't think I was big enough. My insecurities hindered myself and I missed out, that next year I was determined to play football no matter what and so I did and it was some of the best days of my life!
Characters of Character: What advice do you have for children who lack confidence in their own abilities?
Kellan: Only when we sit around and do nothing do we truly fail. Any forward motion is better than doing nothing. We have been created with purpose in our DNA – the LORD desires each of us to fulfill that purpose and HE will help we just need to move.
