Grit Is the Strongest Predictor of Future Success

Grit is the strongest predictor for future success in an individual; grit overcomes wit and ability every time. Studies have proven that given a group with equal IQ scores and ability, those with grit will beat out their counterparts.

You can use your past experiences to influence your current or future situations by calling on the skills you created when you had to fight to overcome so you can rise out of a difficult time…

✔Bounding back after a bad audition or performance
✔Finding out you didn’t the get the role or job when you really wanted it
✔That time you had to say goodbye to someone you loved
✔That season you didn’t sleep when your baby was small and you had to    be at work
✔Being in boot camp or on tour during your military career
✔Working menial jobs and creating a budget with little income
✔Being a single parent with no support
✔Overcoming a medical event
✔Bringing your credit back after bankruptcy

If you have endured loss and came out the other side, you have undoubtedly developed grit.

5 Tips to Strengthen Your Child’s Emotional Health and Happiness

,

Nurturing your child’s emotional health is essential for happy, healthy kids. During the formative years of childhood, emotional health and identity are largely shaped. Their sense of well-being as well as their physical and cognitive growth may be negatively affected if this foundation is not properly established.

Three main factors play an essential role in how well kids can manage their emotions, gain perspective, and develop resilience.

These factors include having close relationships with their parents, receiving appropriate parenting, and having strong social and emotional skills.

How can you strengthen your child’s emotional health? These tips can help:

1.Spend time with your kids.
2. Train your children to be “fluent at feelings.”
3. Avoid labeling your children when you discipline them.
4. Encourage them to think positively.
5. Let them know it’s okay for life to be difficult sometimes.
