Youth goal setting

There is a story I remember when I was a child, there was a series of stories about lazy and stupid Juan: How does Juan motivate the crab.

This is not exactly the title, but in the story, Juan seems to be motivating the crab, when he whispers, "Go home, cross the sea, go to the mother. Tell her I am still here, play with my friends. "

You see, Juan was asked by his mother to buy two big crabs on the market. The market is on another island; Juan needs to ride to get to the other side. When he finally bought the crab that was asked about him, he saw his playmate and was tricked into playing. What happened next, of course, you know now. He "whispers" on the crab and motivates them to cross the river.

Nowadays, many teenagers are like Juan: like to break the rules, not complete the task, yes, do some stupid things.

As parents, what can we do to help them set goals for themselves? We can't just sit there and let them always be Juan.

1. Determine how young people learn

We can't just support the youth goals we set for them. We must understand how they tick, what makes them touched, and what drives them. Before we convince them to set goals for themselves, we must learn and determine how they learn.

The learning style of adolescents can be visual, auditory or sports.

Visual learners can better understand and remember what they see. Therefore, these learners will be sensitive to visual activities or efforts such as art or watching movies.

If your teenage daughter wants to be a professional fashion designer, show her design pictures made by famous fashion masters. Or let her watch movies from different eras and let her see the changes in style over time. After that, encourage her to set goals for her dreams, such as designing her sister's winter outfit.

2. Find ways to keep a scorecard

Adolescent goal setting can be a tedious job. Solve this problem by recording his or her achievement scorecard.

This scorecard allows teens to see if they are in sync with their stated goals, or whether the projects they are undertaking are clear.

Adolescents need to see and understand the outcome of a given goal before they can begin to achieve it. Failure to do so will make them lose interest.

3. End of definition

When setting goals, try specific. If the set goals are not clear, teenagers may see goal setting as something that keeps them away from friends. Never let this happen. Adolescent goal setting must be provided to young people, such as entertainment, to get their interest.

Please provide clear instructions when creating goal settings for teens.

4. Be a model

Adolescent goal setting can be a very confusing activity. Parents must set goals there.

Let him participate in family activities and marvel at every wisdom he can discover from interaction.

It is important to ask them what they think about what they want in life.

I am deeply impressed and always consider my loved ones when setting goals in life. They will be your guide and the driving force behind your dream journey.
