Step 1: Write goals down
Discuss your kids’ goals with them and write the goals on a piece of paper. Be specific, and think big while being realistic.
Rewrite the goals often to keep them focused and motivated.
Step 2: Speak their goal
Have your kids say their goals and achievements out loud every morning. Repeating them will make them stick and will help chart progress.
Step 3: Break down the goals
Break the goals down into steps. Make each step a sub-goal, leading to the achievement of their final goal.
Celebrate each small step achieved toward the larger goal with a reward.
Step 4: Learn from experience
Look at any slip-ups as learning experiences. Slipping is expected and should be taken in stride.
Step 5: Visualize goal
Teach your kids to visualize themselves achieving their goals.
Step 6: Share goal with others
Encourage kids to share their goals with family and friends to keep them motivated. Schedule time with other kids with similar goals.
Step 7: Inspire
Inspire your kids by reading them others’ success stories or sharing your own.
Did you know? You can build confidence in your child by letting them make their own choices and encouraging their curiosity.
