Teach resilience and perseverance from "summary" of The Artist's Way for Parents by Julia Cameron,Emma Lively
In raising resilient children, we are helping them develop the ability to bounce back from setbacks and challenges. Resilience is like a muscle that grows stronger with practice. By teaching our children to persevere through difficult times, we are giving them the tools they need to navigate the ups and downs of life. One way to teach resilience is by modeling it ourselves. When our children see us facing challenges with determination and a positive attitude, they learn by example. We can also encourage them to take on tasks that are challenging but achievable, gradually increasing the level of difficulty as they build their confidence and resilience. It's important to acknowledge our children's efforts and progress, even when they don't succeed at first. By focusing on the process rather than the outcome, we help them understand that setbacks are a natural part of learning and growth. This mindset shift can help them develop a more resilient attitude towards failure. Another key aspect of teaching resilience is encouraging our children to develop a growth mindset. This means helping them see that their abilities and intelligence are not fixed, but can be developed through effort and perseverance. By praising their hard work and effort rather than their innate talent, we help them build a belief in their own ability to overcome challenges.- Teaching resilience and perseverance is about instilling in our children the belief that they are capable of overcoming obstacles and achieving their goals. By providing them with the support and encouragement they need to face challenges head-on, we help them develop the skills and mindset they need to thrive in an ever-changing world.
