Pushing the Boundaries
Posted: January 13, 2009If you really want to give your kids an edge in the world, teach them to go above and beyond the call of duty.
Quality work is a rare thing, and people tak notice. Here are a few key principles to help your children rise above the pack.
First, teach them to recognise their strengths and weaknesses. And to play to their strengths while working on their weaknesses.
Next, they should learn to accept constructive criticism. It is easy to get defensive when someone analyses our performance, but the only wat to grow is through knowing what we need to work on.
Finally, teach them to recognise quality work when they see it- both in themselves and in others. And to appreciate the effort that goes into it.
Quality does not happen by accident, and kids who learn early to be all that they can be, have a huge advantage in life.
