Developing Lifelong Skills for your Child's Success

Sep 11, 2018 | Monterey Park

Of course, we already know how important Math is for anyone's ability to navigate around the modern world.  But, research has shown that certain characteristics can be developed at a young age that foster critical thinking and independence.  

 

 

 

Here are four lifelong skills to instill in your child that will definitely help to mold your maturing child’s success.

  • Become a Lifelong Reader
    • ​In addition to the simple pleasures a book affords, reading is also one of the best tools to expand your knowledge.
  • Goal Setting
    • ​Having a clear horizon makes it easier to take steps towards it. In other words, goals trigger behavior!
  • Develop Strong People Skills
    • ​It's critically important for our kids to develop strong people skills—the ability to behave well and interact comfortably with others so they can at least hold their own and build their confidence over time.
  • Cultivate Self-Care
    • ​Learning to relax and nurture oneself is one of the biggest gifts one can give oneself; in fact, sometimes it's the most important thing at the end of the day.
