In today's lifestyle people are creating a false self in themselves and doing things out of pleasing others. The world is created by the creator for a purpose and given to man the talent needed to prosper but the clock of life turn upside down towards mankind. People are not obeying or misbehave because they are force to do whatever they do not like.
Why people do things without thinking? Why family or business fail in their daily relationship? Is the world going to go haywire?
This are some of the questions pondering in man's mind this century.
I took some time to think what really I want in life … am I satisfied with my job, my family lifestyle, the surrounding and even am I happy today.
The only answer I got is to change myself and do the things I am passionate to do. A lot of people out there are doing things which are forced on them by parents, friends or even surroundings. I cannot be a runner if I do not have inner passion to be a runner. Therefore, it is best to ask the future generation … our kids what they really want to do in life rather than implant in them the passion you want to achieve.
As you can see in the picture above which says it all. A boy holding a bottle and imagination moving in his mind. That is what every kid in any house will be doing every second, every minutes and every hour.
We will never have light if not for Thomas Edison's parents motivating him to invent it eventhough he failed 10,000 times. Most of the time the core motivator is parents and your words to your kids is magic for them to pursuit their lifestyle. Give them the freedom to think and let them achieve what they want to achieve.
In the book "Grooming the Next Generation for Success", Dani Johnson said "the kids are future and nurture them to prosper where they are planted". She also says to see the GEMS in them and cultivate accordingly … motivating and encouraging to prosper.
Below is a short video of what really is GEMS and how you can use it in your life to understand why your children do not obey or misbehave.
Your future generation is in your hands …. Cheers,
