Habits to Raise Successful Kids

1. Don't let up on them.

Set high expectations, and be consistent in your messaging, even when you get eye-rolling (or worse) in reply.

2. Praise them For efforts

it's far more effective over time to praise kids for the effort they put into things, as opposted to their innate abilities. - Not something like: "You're such a good painter!" - But instead, "I am so impressed by the effort you put into that painting, and it turned out so beautifully!"

3. Make them do chores.

two keys that people need in order to be happy and successful:

  1. Love. 
  2. Work ethic.

I'll bet you could sweep the floor more easily and faster, right?

Insist that they do it anyway. It's not just about having a clean floor. It's about learning to have a happy life.
