WHAT YOU SHOULD TRAIN YOUR CHILD TO BE

Many a parent truly desires the success of their children in life and wants them to become well known personalities in whatever profession they venture in but rather than training them for such a life they are unknowingly draining them out of it by their own way of training the children.

Factually all parents individually has a particular profession, either due to their personal flair for the profession or because the profession is their failed dream or for whatever reason, that they desire their children should choose as a life career, but while only a very few parents have the understanding that each child is created particularly to be something else different from what another person is created to be, a larger percent of parents, especially the educated ones passionately pursue, putting together all efforts, to see their children as professionals in those particular fields they desired.

There have been avalanche cases of such parents who threatened their children with disowning when the children resisted or disagreed with their opinions and some just stopped sponsoring such children’s school fees.

Such parents, as those described above, are narcissists whose unaware underpinning desire in their child becoming whatever they desire is either to see themselves in the child’s reflection as he or she poses as a professional in that field or to just have the child fulfills whatever will make them happy without considering the happiness and fulfillment of the child’s life purposes. A true parent seeks their happiness through the happiness of their children, not in isolation of their children’s.

SO WHAT SHOULD YOU TRAIN YOUR CHILD TO BE?
First, as a parent, you need to understand that what your child will be in life may not actually make you happy, but will definitely makes God happy if He orders it. However, as a parent who has understanding, your happiness should be that you helped them succeed in what they are programmed to be in life.

No, I am not saying you shouldn’t help your child make decision about their career, but it should be a mutual agreement between you and them, and that mutual agreement should only be in cases where they don’t know what to pursue as a career in life. In the case where they have their own option, yours is to ensure that first, they are not following someone else steps; second, they have core elements required for it; third, they have been exhibiting it in one way or the other; and fourth, they always work around anything that wants to prevent them from doing it. If all or three of these applied, I assure you that such a child is in his/her right sense and knows what he/she wants. And yours is to become their partner and work with them on how best things will work out fine.

The best profession you can train your child to be is what he or she is created to be. It is what they are programmed to be. It is what their elements (body chemistry) are most bubble to do. Though there are some practices that a child may be demonstrating and which are only the result of their environments, genetic disorder, psychological problem, parental influence and spiritual manipulation, such practices will be known if first, it has a ‘true’ negative effect on their personalities; second, it affects their health badly; third, it is not intentional demonstration; fourth, it is morally declined, and fifth, they don’t really like it themselves and can’t really explain it. In such cases, professional’s help in the related field should be sought.

But if the practices do not have any of the above described detrimental effects on them, just go aside and give them the necessary and needful supports to realise their purpose in life. Even if the required training does not require that they go to school, as you understand school, don’t worry, where they are going to undergo the training is their own school. A school is a place where one goes to acquire knowledge and develop skills that will enable them solve problems in their society.

However, if the training of child will not require him/her go to a formal school, do ensure you help them develop adequate communication skill – written and spoken. It is the skill they will use to tell the world what they are purposed to do and use to address the world when celebrating their fulfillment, happiness and success.

HOW TO GET YOUR IDEAS SPREAD

By Seth Godin on TED 2003. I'm going to give you four specific examples, I'm going to cover at the end about how a company called Silk tripled their sales; how an artist named Jeff Koons went from being a nobody to making a whole bunch of money and having a lot of impact; to how Frank Gehry redefined what it meant to be an architect. And one of my biggest failures as a marketer in the last few years -- a record label I started that had a CD called "Sauce." Before I can do that I've got to tell you about sliced bread, and a guy named Otto Rohwedder. Now, before sliced bread was invented in the 1910s I wonder what they said? Like the greatest invention since the telegraph or something. But this guy named Otto Rohwedder invented sliced bread, and he focused, like most inventors did, on the patent part and the making part. And the thing about the invention of sliced bread is this -- that for the first 15 years after sliced bread was available no one bought it;

THE REAL MEANING OF SCHOOL

Issue of school in regards to its meaning is one of the modern topic amongst educationists. While school is described in a layman term just as a place of learning; it is professionally described as an organized environment for formal education – which means education that follows certain processes. And the features of school, as it is being often mentioned, include: school authority and staff, classrooms, laboratories and libraries, textbooks and lesson notes, students, tables and chairs, various buildings and offices, ink or chalk boards and other materials of instruction. But school, in the real sense, is more than all that have been mentioned as the major features; my description of school is simply a place of getting additional knowledge to one's own natural knowledge. Therefore, the real features of a school is everything and anything that contributes to the growth of one's knowledge, causes the expansion of one's mind, increases one's intelligence quotient,

HOW TO DETOXIFY THE YOUNG MINDS FROM INDOCTRINATION

By Wole Soyinka for thehighereducation.com A few years ago, I had reached the stage of despair over the deterioration of the university system in my own country, Nigeria, under successive regimes of both civilian and military orders. Even the basic, campus social life had broken down, a condition that I tried to summarise in the title of a public lecture that went: “Descent of barbarism and end of the collegial”. Educational standards had plummeted so low that the word “illiteracy” had become current within – not only outside – the ivory towers, leading Unesco to classify Nigeria as one of the nine countries that together accounted for 70 per cent of the globe’s illiterate population. We do not need to be reminded that primary and secondary education form the base material for the intellectual quality of intakes into the tertiary institution. When deterioration in those two tiers is compounded by the fact that those tertiaries indulged in any excuse to foment strikes by facul

HOW TO HAVE YOUR INTELLIGENT QUOTIENT INCREASED

WHAT IS INTELLIGENT QUOTIENT ACCELERATOR? If intelligence means the activity or working of the brain to perceive and intelligent quotient means the speed at which the brain works in perceiving, then intelligent quotient accelerator means something that increases that speed from certain level of perceiving to higher level of perceiving. Some facts you should know about knowledge in relation to intelligence include the fact that it is knowledge which determines intelligence due to its (knowledge’s) diversity. Diversity in this context refers to the fact that different kind of activities requires their different individual knowledge. For instance, there are different kinds of knowledge for different sport activities; there is another one for different scientific workings; there is another one for cooking, etc. for as many activities you can mention, each has its own knowledge. Now the kind of activity or profession or subject that fits a person's natural endeavor or that in
