Temporary Child Custody

When your child is clear about their goals, and is planning to achieve them, it is a great time to get to work on how to make it all happen – how action brings momentum into play and makes success a reality.

Taking action is a fundamental habit of all achievers.  When others are unfocused and can’t be bothered, the achiever is able to take massive action and get a great deal done.

Child Self Confidence is a truly great quality to encourage, wouldn’t you agree?

Ask your child ‘Do you REALLY want to achieve your goals? Then impress upon them the need to take action. Not just every so often, or when they feel like it, but as often as they can.

If the “Why” of why they want to achieve their goal is big enough in their mind then this will provide great motivation, and when they have a plan and take action, success will be theirs.

Train them that that you can’t just want something and do nothing about it; action is a crucial part of success!

I can’t impress upon you enough just how easy it is for your child to become ‘stuck’, held back by their fears.  Fears can be powerful enough to prevent us from moving forwards with our lives, we can create a little bubble or comfort zone around what we allow ourselves to believe we can do… and yet we can always do better than we think we can.

Building your kids self esteem this skill will not only help them to break free from this common constraint, but will also give your child the great confidence to know that they have the power to achieve most of the things they set out to.  

Furthermore, having their mind focused on being proactive and focusing on what they can do, rather than what they can’t do, offers them tremendous personal power, and ensures that they are driven by their commitments and not by how they feel.

Coach them that each time that they do something they need to do, when they don’t feel like doing it, they are a champion in life, a quality which will lead to many great things.

If you can encourage your child to work each day on their goals, you will soon find that they get closer to them as time goes by.  The journey may seem long, but to travel a little each day will ultimately bring about great progress!

For example, as in other aspects of your child development, if they want to be a great musician, they must practice their instrument every day for twenty minutes.

Or, if they want to be a black belt in Karate, they must be sure to practice their moves!

Have them say out loud this phrase – ‘Inch by inch it’s a cinch, yard by yard it’s hard’!

Here’s to Happy and Healthy Children

My name is Lee Mainprize and I am delighted that you are giving me this opportunity to make a difference to your child’s development.  I would like to congratulate you for taking the time to help improve your childs self confidence and development.

You know when you ask your child to go and brush their teeth and en route they manage to meander through any distraction possible, when all you want them to do is:-

1.    Go directly to the bathroom
2.    Get their toothbrush
3.    Brush their teeth!

In your mind it’s a simple (and necessary) task, but how often do you have to remind them, or hurry them along?!

And would they complete a task if we left it up to them!

An important difference in the parent /child thought process is that you have a clear expectation of what needs to be done, a timeframe and an outcome – in effect, a vision of them completing the task.  
Your child however, is more likely to be tuned in to their toys, games and the other many wonderful distractions available to our children these days, than the job in hand.   I developed my new website with this in mind.

Life skills – such as child self esteem, self-discipline, respect, focus and self-control – are taught by motivational animated characters as part of an adventure.

And as your child’s avatar progresses through the ranks, skills learned are followed up offline with Quest Charts.

Crucially, children get the chance to succeed on their own, at their own pace – and to log that experience via ‘posts’ which become a Journal of the Quest – good child development in itself.

This means that they can see for themselves just how far they have come.

So, as you are no doubt already fully aware… it’s not enough to just ‘Know What You Want’ you also need to ‘Make A Plan’.

Here’s to Healthy, Successful and Fulfilled Children

A divorce can really rattle your confidence when it comes to starting to date again. Women who have spent most of their married life taking care of the home and kids tend to struggle a little more when it comes to gaining a greater sense of self to step back onto the dating scene. Trusting your own judgment and giving yourself little confidence boosting treats can be highly helpful.

Getting back out there is going to involve different things for different women. Some will want to find out how to get rid of acne while other women will want to learn how to pep up their personal style. It’s perfectly acceptable to feel as though you aren’t quite in your element. Just learn as you go.

Buy yourself one or two things that will help you feel like a million bucks. If you’re interested in that beautiful pair of swarovski earrings then by all means, go for it. If you’re just looking for a new way to upgrade your style, then spend the money on a personal consultant.

Choose your wardrobe to find a blend of style and comfort. We all have moments where we are not sure if the brown boot or the black boot goes better with our look. We all have moments where we feel like we are simply fish out of water trying to jump back into the pond. Take a few deep breaths, relax, and try to focus on giving yourself that extra edge while feeling comfortable with your style.

Don’t forget that you’re not in this boat alone. Plenty of women have decided to get back out there and go for the social life that they deserve. It’s not always easy when you are suddenly a single parent and have a world of responsibilities on your hands. But it is definitely worth the effort.

Look at the positive aspects of yourself and your life for better confidence. There were probably things your ex said that were painful and it’s easy to focus on such things when you’re nervous. Those things were just one guy’s opinion and in all likelihood they were probably said just to cause pain. Allow yourself the freedom to figure out who you are for yourself.

You don’t have to push yourself out the door before you’re ready. It’s certainly not your friends or your family that has to get back out there, so don’t allow them to push you. It’s your life and you can still have a high quality one if you want it. Deciding for yourself is a major confidence booster no matter how long it’s been since you’re divorce.
