2. Help your children to set goals





Goals will give a direction to your children's thoughts and to their


life. It is a best way to stimulate your children to make proper use


of their time and energy.





Hence encourage your children to set some goals-like study goals or


career goals, and ask them to do their best to achieve it. Allow them


the freedom to set the goals which they want to achieve. Do not force


your interest on them. However, you can guide them to make right


decisions, if they seem confused or undecided.





3. Help your children make correct choices





Your children can avoid many problems and failures if they choose


things which match with their interests and strengths. Things in which they are naturally good.





This means, your children should choose study-subjects and career


based on their natural strengths, talents and interest.





For example, if your son is good in music then it will be best for him


to choose career based on music. If your daughter is strong in math,


it would be a right decision to choose higher education and career


based on mathematics.





Such choices based on children's strength,interest, and natural talent, help them to learn faster and make better progress.





Observe your children to find out in which work they are good at. What things interest them. In which subjects they score higher


consistently. Also ask your children what are their aims, dreams and


interests.





All this information will help your children to choose a


particular educational qualification or job or business that suits


them better.





4. Keep your children optimistic about their future





Children see failures, unemployment, job retrenchments, violence, and


other depressing things around them-either through the media or in thelife of people known to them.





These negative things can demotivate children. It can make them lose


interest in studies and career. It can make them think they don't have much chance for achieving success. Such thinking might make them


apprehensive about their future. You can prevent this.





Teach your children to convert problems into solutions. To look for


opportunities in difficulties.





Also turn your children's attention to those people who are achieving


success. While there are people living in depressing conditions, there


are also thousands of other people who are getting good jobs, earning


wealth, fulfilling their dreams and living happily.





With this kind of thinking, your children will not get discouraged. They will remain


reassured about their future and make efforts to reach for their


dreams.





5. Keep up the energy level





Bad health can adversely affect children's learning ability and


performance level. Help your children to stay healthy and energetic.


Encourage them to eat healthy and nutritious food, drink sufficient


water, sleep properly and exercise regularly.





If the body is healthy, then the mind will also be healthy. Your children will be able to study more, work more, and enjoy their life better.
