ENCOURAGING MOTIVATION IN KIDS
“If you're trying to force motivation by nagging them, threatening them with punishments or giving them bribes to try to get them to be motivated, you're not actually helping them develop this intrinsic self-motivation, which is really the key here.”
This week on the 3D Parent Podcast, we are going to talk about cultivating intrinsic motivation in your children to accomplish a task or goal. I want you to keep in mind, this is different than nagging them, or threatening to take something away or bribing them. This is helping them learn to motivate themselves to accomplish necessary tasks or goals.
Throughout the podcast, I will provide you with some direction on how to help guide them to their own motivation. We’ll walk through helping them find interests and passions, and then setting goals that may involve those interests and passions. We will also talk about helping them find motivation for things they may not want to do, like chores.
