Some of the shortcomings observed in the new generations are strength of will and effort. Habitulamente messages are heard on the importance of strive to achieve the proposed goals in life. However, the society of consumption and the well-being in which we live transmits subliminal ideas in the opposite direction.
The messages we receive invite us to think that quality of life can be achieved without work, hence children grow up without developing the capacity of effort that helps them to face the challenges and difficulties that life poses. That is why Aurora from the 'Tv for Parents' church explains to us the importance of encouraging and motivating children to effort and work.
Turn effort into a habit for children
Today more than ever, it is necessary to foster children's capacity for self-control so that they are able to support the efforts demanded by life in society . Many parents are wrong when they take their children away from the difficulties they had to overcome in their childhood. This leads to overprotection and to offer a comfortable life where they give everything done, causing them in the future to become insecure and capricious adults.Willpower and effort must be trained every day
converting behaviors into habits lo, which will significantly reduce the feeling of effort. When the child is able to understand why he should do something and feel motivated to do so, the habit of work and effort becomes a positive value for him that will fill him with pride in the future. Neither must we fall into the error of the imposition requirement. Parentsshould demand the children but not force or impose
. Through an adequate demand, parents can awaken the capacity for work and effort in the child while stimulating values such as strength of will, perseverance, responsibility or perseverance. If the child is able to understand it,the demand becomes motivation
, however, the imposition of an adult demand or the threat and fear of the consequences of non-compliance do not generate any motivation for the child or promote its disposition to make an effort Parents should accompany and help the child in their learning, hence parents should be the first to educate by example.
