Parent Encouragement {2020 Must Read}
Are you concerned that your child is not receiving the same education as they would have if they were in school? Worried about the aftermath of 2020?
Don't forget this encouraging thought--> the experiential education they are getting from LIFE right now could prove to be worth ten times more in their future than the missed classroom lessons.
This quote is only half true: "The bigger the struggle, the more glorious the triumph".
It is only true if your child constructs and maintains an empowering perspective.
How do I make sure my child constructs and maintains an empowering perspective through 2020?
1. Teaching Shapes Perspective
They need frameworks, analogies, and stories that will result in them saying, "Wow, I never thought about it that way..."
2. Mentoring Shapes Perspective
Right now your child really needs mentors who can share their personal experiences, struggles, and triumphs. These mentors will inspire your child and fill him or her with hope.
3. *Coaching Shapes Perspective
Different from a teacher or mentor, a coach is someone who will pose open ended questions and lead a young man or women to their OWN answers.
Nothing is more powerful than a great coach who asks great questions and can lead a young man or woman to water.
2020 can and should be the most valuable, pivotal, growth-inducing year of your child's life.
As long as you get them connected to the right sources, a year or two from now they will look back and confidently say they became a stronger, more resilient, more empathetic person because of 2020. #PerspectiveShift
Dedicated to your child's happiness and success,
Coach Andrew and the PFP Team
