Member You - Sewing The Seeds For Success
It’s natural that the capital of the country, London, is the richest and world famous places. They are Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, the Houses of Parliament, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and Trafalgar Square with the monument to Admiral Nelson in its center and many others. Among the other places of interest it’s necessary to tell you about Stratford-on-Avon, the place associated with the name and life of William Shakespeare. In Henry Street there’s a wooden house where the greatest Engli
There are many ways to sew the seeds to success in your children. However following are two simple strategies I often recommend to parents who want to sew some positive seeds. They are: descriptive praise and summary praise. I am not in favour of using praise when it is unrealistic or puts a child on a pedestal. However, when used wisely it can sew the seeds of success that can come to the fore at a later date.
• Descriptive praise: Throw a spotlight on the positive behaviours. Rather than a trite ‘well done’, draw a word picture of what they did we
If you read my last article, you know about Chitika and the new eMiniMalls that are popping up everywhere on the web. You can serve up relevant product ads to your users, and let them search for other products without leaving the comfort and safety of your web page. I was asked recently about how to add Chitika ads to your Blogger blog, so I thought I'd take some time to write up exactly how this is done.In case you haven't seen my Personal Financial Freedom
It is important for everyone to understand basics of personal finances and also effectively use them .Any individual has two types of income . Assured income as well as income which is not assured.Assured income is one which will keep flowing whether you are personally working or not . For example, Rentals, dividends, royalties , Interest , etc .On the other hand income which is not assured is one which stops flows the moment you stop working. For e.g Paycheck, Bonus, etc
He was right. He has heard me focus on his resilience (which I have always found to be remarkable) many times. Somehow the message of “you are resilient” has stuck and resilience has become part of his self-concept. For that I am grateful as now, more than ever, he needs to be resilient to cope with some pretty difficult conditions.
I have always believed that children seldom misquote their parents. In fact, they usually repeat word for word what we shouldn’t have said! Our words as well as our focus are powerful indeed.
Martin Seligman, author of The Optimistic Child, found through his significant research that children tended to pick up the language and explanatory style of their parents (usually mothers) by around the age of eight. So the messages that we repeat for kids certainly have an impact.
So what is the point? Be aware of the language we use when interacting with kids and hone in like a laser beam on the positive characteristics that they have that will help them be successful.
Michael Bernard, author of Program Achieve, has found five characteristics that successful children share beyond pure academic abilities. These are:
• Resilience
• Persistence
• Friendship skills
• Organisational skills
• Confidence
These are not the only skills kids need to be successful and happy, but they form a solid basis.
Bernard noted that children who had these characteristics actually thought of themselves in these ways. In other words, confident kids actually knew they were confident and resilient kids, like my son, could articulate that they were resilient (even if they didn’t use those words). It is how children think about themselves that is the key here.

Lenders are quite fussy about what they like to see on your credit report. So much so that you will have a hard time to meet their high expectations. But what exactly are they looking for? In this article we take a look at one aspect of your credit history that lenders have a keen eye out for.Most revolving loans, loan accounts and credit cards will show a monthly payment pattern describing your history for up to 6 years, although often only the last 3 years are visible on your credit h

As you bounce up in the air for the hundredth time, you may be wondering how your trampoline works. There are two things that work together to make you bounce. The trampoline springs and mat combine to create the proper tension to enable you to bounce when you jump. However, exactly how high you bounce depends directly on exactly how strong the springs around your trampoline's edges are.All trampoline springs should pass the American Society for Testing and Material standards before the

• Descriptive praise: Throw a spotlight on the positive behaviours. Rather than a trite ‘well done’, draw a word picture of what they did well and let them know its impact. “You are such a good friend. Jenna really needed someone to help her with that problem. You acted like a good friend should.” Such comments genuinely made become stored in their memory and become part of their Internal Character Reference System (ICRS).
• Summary praise: Give children positive labels to live up to by summing up their positive behaviours with one word. “You really worked hard to finish your project. That’s what I call persistence.” “You cleaned up the kitchen without being told. You are a self-starter.” Persistence and self-starter become part of your children’s ICRS
Children take their cues from their parents about how they should see themselves. Peers are influential, but it is parents who as significant adults in their lives that hold most of the aces in this important area.
We need to have our antennae up for the positive behaviours and, importantly, point them out to kids when they occur.
