Become a Motivated Parent

Where does YOUR motivation come from?

Yourself?

Other people?

TV?

Friends?

Motivational speakers?

Motivation can come from all of the above or none of the above. It is again as unique as we each are. But, each does need to find what motivates us individually.

So, I can only speak for myself – I like being productive and at the end of my life I want my life to have been Meaningful and I do have a Purpose-not only this blog but I knit, I read a lot of history, biographies, autobiographies and very little fiction.

Become a Motivated Parent

I like to make this day count – I do not stress out about not finishing today – but I try to be as productive as I can each day – making each day count

Making each day count by taking care of Mind, Body, and Spirit

Mind – reading and learning every day

Body – putting only fresh organic food into YOU and YOUR children’s bodies

Spirit – know and meditating or praying to God-Higher Power

Let YOUR child answer some questions that are right or wrong:

what if you saw a friend steal something?

and what if you knew a friend was being a bully?

what if a friend was doing drugs and being self-destructive?

what if you had a friend who was having sex?

Let the child answer the questions – and most of the time they will use their own common sense of their values.

Encourage instead of a judge and they will appreciate that. For instance, the drugs and sex situations there are ideas to:

watch documentaries about sex and drugs too early

especially having a baby too young or doing drugs will both cause loss of opportunities

Let YOUR child know exactly what they are doing right and praise them on the specific item.

Being motivated all the time and every day is difficult. It is up to you, the parent, to be the family cheerleader. And on a daily basis that is hard. Just do the best you can and be motivated as much as you can on any given day.

    I was wondering if you ever considered changing the page layout of your website?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
    Youve got an awful lot of text for only having
    one or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better? 0mniartist asmr
