Unlocking Children’s Potential: A Guide For Parents Who Want A Little Bit More For Their Children
A few years ago, when we met for the first time, neither of us had ever imagined the path that had been awaiting us. However, we soon realized that we will walk this path together. Within a very short time we managed to combine our knowledge and create a unique system for the education of parents and their children. Now for more than two years we have been conducting special workshops for children and students aimed at developing their talents; it’s been a joy to have nearly three thousand participants in these workshops.
Due to the quality responses received, we have decided to expand the program a little further and make our experience even more accessible to people. All our accumulated knowledge and effective methods, which are key to the proper use of our strengths are condensed in more than two hundred pages of our new book entitled Unlocking Children’s Potential that we launched on October 1st.
In the book, we discuss not only discovering what is in us, but also the functioning of brain synapses, creating synergies and building self- confidence. Parents and educators will be able to see how the latest findings of positive psychology help children in their development and self-awareness, which lead not only to success, but also to happiness in their life.
Why is self-knowledge important?
It’s simple: when we do what we are good at and what we enjoy, we feel good and are able to perform better. Feeling good and enjoying learning and work help prevent stress or the accumulation of negative emotions.
Where to begin to learn how to find out what our talents are? And how to help children to discover them?
For these purposes, psychometric talent tests have been developed. These tests contain statements and examples of real life situations, from which we select those responses that best define us. Most of these tests are based on the intuitive responses and preferences of each respondent. The results will highlight which areas are the strongest and where we could succeed.
For those who do not want to go through the tests, there are also simple exercises in which we ask ourselves what gives us energy and what helps us recharge. Such activities are likely to overlap with areas of our talents.
It is natural to have both strengths and weaknesses. Identification of our weaknesses helps us: these are activities that we should learn at least at such a level that they do not limit us in the future. However, these are not areas that we should focus on in life. Additionally, it’s important to recognize that this is why there are diverse work teams. We continue to work with strengths and talents – through verification, development and learning how to use them best.
