Money and assets given by parents and support when starting a business are extremely important. But money is not enough because if you lack skills and qualities, money cannot compensate for it. On the other hand, if you lack money but have qualities and skills, you can borrow and make money to pay off debts, accumulate wealth, and become successful. Therefore, when raising children, parents should not only focus on investing money for them to learn many things and save for their entrepreneurial ventures but also teach them these important skills. These skills help children overcome even when they lack money and help them develop successfully.

Teach children patience in listening

Successful people are not those who talk a lot but those who listen a lot. Therefore, patient listening is the key to understanding life, observing the world to find the right direction. Teaching children to listen will help them become more easily integrated into society and become people who know how to interact with others. The lack of listening skills will make children impulsive and unable to grasp the essence of things.

To teach children patience, first, parents themselves need to learn to patiently listen to their children. Stay calm when your child hasn’t had a chance to express themselves or faces difficulties in expressing themselves. Don’t interrupt their expression, let them speak, tell their stories, and express themselves.

Teach children the habit of reading books

Books are a treasure trove of knowledge, and the habit of reading books is a good habit that helps train the mind and thinking. The more you read and learn, the more open-minded, intelligent, and wise you become. Truly successful people often value books and knowledge. Reading books nowadays includes reading physical books and reading news and media online. Being diligent in reading will bring you more understanding because the world is vast, and sitting at the bottom of the well is a great limitation for human beings. Parents should encourage children to be open-minded and absorb lessons from life (both positive and negative), and parents should be role models for their children. Those who have a broad perspective, know a lot and understand a lot, will have an easier path to success than those who know little and understand little.

Teach children communication skills

Communication is an important channel to connect with society. We are unlikely to succeed without communication because society is a collective entity, and we cannot exist alone. Without good communication skills, children will have a hard time integrating into society. Without connecting with society, it will be difficult for them to succeed and they will miss out on many opportunities for personal development. No one succeeds without good relationships. Quality relationships are a measure that promotes success. Even in family education, communication between parents and children is especially important. Communicate with your child as much as possible, so you can support and correct their communication errors.

Teach children writing skills

Writing is a way to express opinions and ideas. Even in this modern age of science, writing is still essential. Writing doesn’t mean only handwriting, it also includes typing, it means expressing thoughts in written form. Without good writing skills, it is difficult to find ideal career development opportunities in modern society. Writing ability is also a way to express and advance oneself.

Independent work skills

Even if you can provide everything for your child, never turn them into dependent individuals. Teach children survival skills, cooking, laundry, changing light bulbs, etc. These are basic survival skills that they need to be self-reliant. The ability to face and solve problems independently is the most essential survival skill that each individual needs to have in modern society. It is also a basic ability to face life and career in the future.

Teamwork skills

In this era, teamwork is an important skill that leads to achievements. The success of individuals always has the role of the collective. Teaching children how to interact and work with others helps them become proactive, promotes creative thinking, and helps them become confident in communication, as well as affirm their own abilities. Some methods that parents can use to teach children teamwork skills include having them participate in volunteer clubs, scouting, encouraging them to engage in team sports, group studying with friends, cooking, housekeeping, or repairing things with parents.

Teach children to respect others

Respecting others is also a way to respect oneself and create safety for oneself. Respecting others is also a quality that others value about themselves. Respecting others’ privacy, not gossiping, not spreading rumors; respecting the care of parents; respecting the mistakes of others, not laughing at them… is a way to enhance one’s self-worth and create good human relationships. When we respect others, we also protect our own safety because when we do not respect others, we are more likely to be harmed by others.

Teach children gratitude

Gratitude is the source of our growth and success. Appreciating what we have helps us feel happiness and motivates us to strive for more. When we have gratitude, the things we receive will continue to grow. Parents should teach children gratitude from the smallest things, such as being grateful for a pen bought by mom, being grateful for the meals cooked by parents, being grateful for the clothes given by grandparents. Nurturing gratitude is nurturing something beautiful in our hearts to move forward with faith.
