As parents, most of the time you are able to recognize your child’s strength and potential but do not encourage them properly to do great things. What you fail to understand is that at a young age, your child may be seeing the obstacles that stand in the way as opposed to the possibility of reaching their goals with the potential that they can have. It is your responsibility to help your child overcome the obstacles and to work hard for what they want.
You need to make your kid realize that they are awesome as they are and have the ability to make anything happen only if they dream big. You can inspire them to think big with the help of the following TED Talks:
