S.M.A.R.T goals posted by UNKNOWN

We are at the end of January , and I think it is a good time to check with our children and see how they are doing with their goals for the new year. Hopefully, they are using the daily journal on goals to write down their progress. When you write down the baby action steps , you have a higher chance of getting the goal accomplished. A S.M.A.R.T goal is one that is specific, realistic, something you can measure; and above all one that you have a time target on.

Set a S.M.A.R.T Goal to Re-Invent Yourself posted by UNKNOWN

Now, is the time to set up some S.M.A.R.T goals for the school term. Students have the time. Break down a big issue(goal) into small baby steps and each day work a few minutes to get it down. Getting small steps done will give a student a feeling of confidence to go on with the big goal. If you are not happy with how things went last year in school, re-invent yourself with a new goal. What went wrong? Don't blame yourself. I believe you should learn from the past year, and make a solid plan for the new school year. Goals should follow your passions and skills. Always be realistic with the big goal. The more realistic it is the more apt you are to accomplishing it. Good luck.

Help Kids Solve their Own Problems posted by UNKNOWN

It is so important for parents to help their children solve their own problems by asking them the right questions. If parents solve the problems and not the student, this will develop a dependency on the parent. This is not good and can last a lifetime. How does a parent foster this independence for their child? The best way is to ask the right questions of their children. The quesitons should start with the words "how", "what,"." tell me more about that," and questions starting with the word "when." I would not use the word "why." This word can put a child on the defensive which will stop all conversation. We don't want to be in a position of lecturing our children, because they will not listen then. All will be lost. Good luck.
