Creating Goals

To reinforce the importance of setting and meeting goals, ask your child to name at least one goal s/he set and accomplished every day of practice.  

By asking for a goal each day, regardless of whether or not one was made, you will set the standard in your child that goals are important in life. Your child will learn to create goals in everything s/he does.  

The power in this is that your child will base his/her self worth on his/her own accomplishments rather than the opinion of others.  

Consistency is the key to building the successful habit of meeting goals.
