4 Ways To Teach Your Kids To Become Entrepreneurs

Does your child have entrepreneurial skills? Here are four ways to teach your kids to become entrepreneurs.

While some kids have to be groomed, some kids are born with a natural entrepreneurial spirit. Most often, we have seen that some kids perform better at fairs and fates because of their creative bent of mind. By the time they hit nine or ten, they can be seen selling sports cards, pencils, candy, and gum to their classmates during recess.

By the time they hit their teens, they can be seen making the most of social media by monetizing reels for money. If you have ever seen the spark in your child’s eyes, then you must nourish their skills and make them ready for the future. Join our FREE-TO-ALL Webinar ‘Art of Parenting & Success Mantras for Kids’ by Dr Vivek Bindra—India’s best motivational speaker. The webinar will be conducted on July 10th, 2022.

Here are four ways to encourage your children to become entrepreneurs:

1. Assist them in identifying opportunities

Entrepreneurs have an eye for details. They do not miss an opportunity and always find ways to approach a challenge with a creative solution. In cases where there is a problem that is not acknowledged, entrepreneurs spot them and find a way to resolve them. In cases where the problem and its solution already exist, entrepreneurs find distinct ways to make the solution better.

With your smart parenting skills, you can teach your kids how to recognize opportunities that lead to entrepreneurs creating a product or a service.

2. Teach Them Real-World Applications

The only constant thing is change. And a lot of times, people find changes to their distaste. Of course! Now, no one likes to compromise with their comfort zone. However, life is all about making things better. So, if your children express their dissatisfaction with something, encourage them to think of better ways. Start simply. If they come up with ideas that already exist, appreciate them, nonetheless. Just like you use your parenting strategy in business, teaching your children to spot opportunities and act on them will contribute greatly to the probability of their future success.

3. Let them solve problems.

To protect them, most parents often hold their children back. They often do not allow their children to think and make decisions. Instead, they take charge of making decisions, rushing to fix any problems their children may encounter and protect them from harm. But entrepreneurs often have to make decisions that are sometimes very difficult. So, children who are not used to making their own decisions might feel lost. Hence, let your kids face adversity so that they can make decisions independently.

4. Develop Patience, Acceptance & Resilience

Life is not a bed of roses. Instead, it is like a roller coaster where you will experience ups and downs. Because no one has ever learned to walk without falling, one should know that kids are eventually going to fall. What’s important is that they should know how to get back on their feet.

You must teach your children that failure and disappointment are parts of life. Every successful entrepreneur gets knocked down at least a dozen times in their life. They taste delightful success only by turning losses into victories. No matter if you are an adult or a child, entrepreneurship entails resilience.

Though there is much debate on whether entrepreneurial traits are the result of nature or nurture, research does show that encouraging cognitive thinking in kids will help them cultivate entrepreneurship.

If you want to train your children for a brighter tomorrow, do not forget to join our FREE-TO-ALL Webinar ‘Art of Parenting & Success Mantras for Kids’ by Dr Vivek Bindra—India’s best motivational speaker. The webinar will be conducted on July 10th, 2022.

3 Powerful Strategies That Will Sharpen Entrepreneurial Skills In Your Kids

3 Powerful Strategies That Will Sharpen Entrepreneurial Skills In Your Kids

Does your kid have an entrepreneurial spirit that needs nourishment? Here is a recipe to raise tomorrow’s successful millionaires.

India has emerged as the third-largest startup ecosystem in the world after the USA and China. A country that is producing more than ten unicorns every year is expected to grow remarkably in the next few years, according to Business Standard.

So, in a country that shows a tremendous future for upcoming entrepreneurs, will you raise your kids to work for someone else’s dream or do you want your kids to pursue their interests and work independently? With art of parenting, you can now prepare your kids for a brighter tomorrow.

If your kid has an entrepreneurial spirit, you as a parent will need to help him develop emotional skills like being comfortable with taking risks, being able to solve problems, and having a good attitude about failing.

Not only academic skills but also soft skills are important to encourage social-emotional skills in kids. Here are five parenting tips that will help you to foster entrepreneurial qualities in your kids:

1. They develop their effective problem-solving skills

It is essential to foster problem-solving skills in kids as it will help them to spot business ideas in everyday life. Most of us think that a business idea has to be technical or something that involves a complex process. But a simple business idea is what it takes to establish a successful startup business.

While your kids are young, you can hone their problem-solving skills with smart parenting skills. If not an entrepreneur, they can simply become a business coach who can help other entrepreneurs achieve their goals. So, help your kids spot the challenges and causes, think of all the possible solutions, weigh the pros and cons, and come up with the best option.

2. Help them understand that failures are lessons

In today’s world, people are keen to focus more on their achievements and wins. They highlight their wins while downplaying their failures. The media has created a stigma about failure that nobody wants to accept that it is a natural process to fail at some point in your life.

Failure is a stepping-stone toward success. If you don’t fail, you will never learn to work on yourself. Influence your kid’s willingness to try, fail, learn, and you also try again as a parent. These are the essential skills of entrepreneurs. Help your kid see criticism as a chance to learn by helping them come up with ideas about what they should do next.

3. Let Your Kids Take Their Own Decisions

An entrepreneur has to make multiple decisions in his life. Some are challenging, some are hard, while some decisions can change the course of their business completely. The confidence to make the decisions after weighing the pros and cons comes from early independence.

You can let them choose their own outfits or dinner menu. This will help them to make their own decisions and will make them feel good for being able to do that. Try to limit the choices to a few options, as it can be overwhelming for kids.

Kids are often taught to follow what their parents tell them to do, blindly. This is a habit that hinders their ability to think constructively. Instead, teach your kids to challenge the usual norms by articulating their rationale. Ask if they agree with a certain thing. If not, what would they like to change and why? Give them the ability to think, reason, and make decisions independently.

If you are looking for some guidance on how to raise your kids and nourish their entrepreneurial spirit, then do not forget to join the FREE-FOR-ALL Webinar, ‘Art of Parenting & Success Mantras For Students’ by Dr Vivek Bindra on July 10th 2022.

5 Powerful Parenting Strategies You Should Implement in Business

5 Powerful Parenting Strategies You Should Implement in Business
5 Powerful Parenting Strategies You Should Implement in Business

Running a business needs discipline, ground rules, and working as a family towards a common goal. Find out how you can blend a few parenting skills with your business.

Whether it is a large organization or a small company, every business owner considers his company as a “family.” Starting a business is very similar to having a baby. Just like a baby needs continuous love, affection, and proper diet on time, a company too needs every department to work in sync.

Successful leaders and business owners do not shy away from applying the art of parenting to good business practices. Here are five parenting strategies in business that can help you to become a better entrepreneur:

1. Ensure Rules Across the Organization

The best possible way to achieve your goals is through discipline. Ask any parent and they will swear by having rules. Enforcing essential rules is essential for business growth. It is very important to clearly outline behavioural expectations in communication. It is also important to ensure that employees clearly understand them.

Just like family members remind each other what is acceptable and what is not, give your employees a space where they can remind each other of the rules. Make sure that everyone understands the consequences of breaking the rules.

2. Focus on Values

Creating values in a company is no different than creating a positive environment in a family. Parents often try to model behaviour for their children because kids tend to adopt what they see. The owner of a business should use this approach of parenting to teach their employees some core values.

The application of the art of parenting in business also means encouraging good behaviour of the employees and discouraging negative behaviour of those in the team. When you see it happening in your team or your organization, call out the offending employee(s). Have an open discussion and send out clear messages about how employees are expected to treat each other.

3. Multitasking

Being an entrepreneur is more or less similar to being a parent. Just like parents have to play multiple roles for their kids at different times, entrepreneurs have to don multiple hats. Sometimes they have to be a salesperson, an accountant, or an assistant while taking care of business operations.

4. Keep Calm & Maintain Composure

One of the most important traits of parenting strategies in business is to keep your cool no matter the situation. Being a parent means taking care of the different requirements of children, which also includes their emotional needs. Children who are growing every day and getting exposed to new things frequently also experience mood swings, to which parents have to cater without losing their calm.

Similarly, building a startup from scratch is not an easy task. There are multiple things to be taken care of and various challenges that an entrepreneur may encounter. Keeping your patience and calm is the key to thinking about out-of-the-box solutions to overcome those challenges.

5. Always Be Fair

Changing rules without making people aware who will be impacted directly can create a chaotic environment in a family. Similarly, employees perform best when they feel appreciated. Each employee should feel that he/she is being treated fairly and nobody is getting preferential treatment. Ensure that you apply consequences even-handedly when a rule is broken, no matter who they are.

Every startup company is like a small kid. You need to constantly work your socks off for its growth and sustainability. So why not implement these parenting strategies in business?
