Hi everyone,

Here's my post for the week:

Your learning habits shape your child’s future. Model growth, spark curiosity, and build a thriving home. Why your learning matters more than you think!

This is all true. Children often watch and do what they see.

But then, there are many cases, when "simple" parents raised children which became very successfull in their life. That could mean, they built their great careers, or became rich, etc..

And then, there are probably also cases, where the parents are very successfull (with great careers and/or also being rich) and their children are just... not there and will never be. ;)

Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Zoki. You're right. There are countless stories of children from humble backgrounds who rise to incredible heights, just as there are cases where highly successful parents raise children who take a completely different path. The key difference often lies in mindset and values rather than just external success. Some parents instill resilience, curiosity, and a strong work ethic, regardless of their financial or career status. Others may provide every advantage, but if personal drive and purpose aren’t nurtured, those advantages don’t always translate into success.

And often, when there are more kids in one family, it happen that one kid becomes successfull and another one very not. Same parents with same strong work ethic and financial and career status.

It's just that we see what we want to see and sometimes that just half of the whole, this or another half. ;)

Thank you!

I love your thoughts and appreciate the perspectives you bring. Parents need to recognize that children absorb, react, and respond to their environment in unique ways. For instance, a dominantly kinesthetic learner thrives through movement and hands-on activities, while an auditory learner absorbs information best through listening. Some children express themselves freely, while others prefer observing before engaging.

No one learning style is superior to another—the magic lies in parents and caregivers understanding these differences and adapting their approach accordingly. This is why a school that worked well for one sibling might not be the best fit for another. Nurturing a thriving child isn't a one-size-fits-all process; it requires attentiveness, flexibility, and a deep commitment to understanding each child's individual needs. It all starts with us as parents and caregivers.

Yes, there are zillion of variables which affect the growth and development of kid’s personality. And don’t forget about the astrology either… ;)

Thank you for feedback.
