Habits of highly-successful people
The talents and skills of their kids are what make successful people. Parents must recognize and nurture these talents in their children early to help them grow. Each child is born with their own unique talent. Parenting should emphasize this talent and give the child ample opportunities to concentrate on it.
Fixed mindset vs. growth mindset
Growth mindset parenting is a way to help your children become successful learners and resilient adults. This mindset is based on the premise that the human brain is far more malleable than once thought. It can be very empowering for kids to hear that their brain can be grown. Explain to your child that their brain is like an exerciseable muscle. This way, they will understand that their intelligence is not a fixed trait.
Quality time

Praise
It is important to give your children autonomy and credit for what they do. This will encourage children to keep learning and develop a growth mindset. Children with this mindset are more likely to persist and to take risks, as well as to be more resilient when they face adversity.
Getting outside
