Don’t give up before it feels natural and simple.
/It’s so easy to just give up.
But is it the right thing to do?
No, it is not.
Giving up might give you that sense of relief initially but its a false sense of relief.
Before learning feels ‘natural and simple’, you will need to go through some very uncomfortable experiences.
Your child might not want to do what you’ve asked them to do.
Your child might refuse to hold their pen and write.
Your child might tell you that they do not want to hold the scissors in the way that you have shown them.
Your child might throw the play doh at you rather than make what you have asked them to make.
It may take your child months/years to learn to identify numbers.
It may take your child months/years to learn any of their phonics.
Will you give up? Or will you keep going?
That is what distinguishes the successful amongst you.
Those of you who give up will never have the success that our clients who keep going will have.
Our clients who put in the work. Our clients who are fully dedicated and take full ownership over their child’s learning.
It won’t feel ‘natural and simple’ for a long time.
Are you willing to keep going until it does?
For today’s challenge, I’d like you to play a game called ‘Light and Dark Silhouettes’. Find a dark corner in your home. This could be inside a tent or you could make shift one with chairs and blankets. Turn on some calming music and ensure it is super dark. Grab a torch or another source of light and go inside the tent! Let your child experiment with light and dark and create silhouettes inside the tent. They can do this with their hands or with other objects.
