3713 The Value of Failures
About this Episode
Raising kids is not for the faint of heart. It takes more than a village to get through what is the most awesome responsibility anyone will ever experience. Yet, with all the competition of wanting what's best for your child, it leaves little room for failure. What happened to the value of failures? And this is not about parenting failures, even though there are many of those. Failure is a natural prerequisite for achieving success. No one achieves success on the first try always.

What happened to paying your dues to get to the next level?
Failure comes with a cost. But what cost does it gain? Success!
As parents, we must let our kids make their own decisions as they grow up and expand their knowledge. Of course, parents need to give pertinent information and perspective on what they need to make better decisions. However, if parents do everything to prevent their child from failing, then what does their child gain? Parenting is a journey filled with challenges, and one of the toughest hurdles to overcome is the aversion to seeing our children fail. Failure, however, is a natural stepping stone to success, a crucial part of the learning process that cannot be overlooked. Step your kids to success, fail more! The K.I.S.S. ~ Step your kids to success, fail more! That's what must happen; you've gotta fail more as a kid. And parents need to let that happen. In a world that often prioritizes perfection and achievement, it's easy for parents to strive for their children to succeed on the first try. But what about the lessons that failures teach us? What about the resilience, determination, and growth that come from facing setbacks?
To truly nurture your children's potential and help them develop critical thinking skills, observation abilities, and a broader perspective, parents can take the following steps:
1. Encourage Independence: Allow children to make their own decisions, even if it means they might fail. Independence fosters self-reliance and empowers children to learn from their mistakes.
2. Provide Guidance, Not Solutions: Instead of solving problems for them, offer guidance and support to help children navigate challenges on their own. This promotes problem-solving skills and builds confidence.
3. Celebrate Effort, Not Just Results: Shift the focus from the outcome to the effort and progress made. Celebrate the journey, highlighting the hard work and determination rather than just the end result.
By embracing failures as learning opportunities and allowing children to experience obstacles, we as parents can instill resilience, perseverance, and a healthy attitude towards setbacks in our children. Remember, the path to success is paved with failures, and it's through these struggles that true growth and learning occur. Children cannot be handed everything on a silver or platinum platter. They need to learn that hard work brings greater reward. "Be present. Be incredible.
