How can we educate a child with positive thinking

The difference between people ultimately lies in the difference in their way of thinking. A positive and optimistic way of thinking is a key force in shaping a child’s future. Hello， I am Mu Yan. While taking a walk after dinner, something suddenly flashed through my mind: one time on the train, my eldest daughter accidentally spilled all her favorite mixed noodles. It was clear that she was very sad, but with the effort she put into tidying them up, she turned sadness into joy and said, “Fortunately, I have other delicious foods.” This reminded me of another time when I bought my youngest daughter her favorite cake. Just as she wanted to eat it in the most comfortable position, she shook her hand and accidentally knocked out the flowers on the cake, causing the cake to take shape. She cried sadly for an entire hour: “The cake doesn’t look good anymore, and a beautiful day has been ruined.” I have always believed that we should not only pay attention to children’s knowledge reserves and… Skill development should pay more attention to their way of thinking. A positive and optimistic way of thinking enables children to maintain a smile and bravely move forward in the face of life’s storms. Let’s explore together how to cultivate a child with positive thinking? Knock on the blackboard, write down these 6 points and stick them on the wall. Practice every day, and I believe that the child will become more and more excellent. Ensuring adequate sleep is the top priority because sleep is so important. People who lack sleep are more irritable, prone to negative thoughts, and their ability to think positively begins to weaken. When children get enough rest, they are more likely to view life with a positive attitude. This is particularly evident in my daughter. If a child takes a nap and their mental state after school is visibly positive, and something bad happens, she will wave her hand and say, “It’s okay, it’s just a small matter.” Setting an example and transmitting positive energy education always requires being influenced. To cultivate positive thinking in children, we must first become parents with positive thinking. For example, if a child cooks a dish before we finish work, positive thinking parents will recognize their child’s efforts when they see that the child has grown up and can take care of their mother; Parents with negative thinking see water everywhere in the kitchen, discarded vegetable leaves on the cutting board that have not been cleaned, and oil droplets everywhere. Only when parents regularly pay attention to positive aspects can they influence their children to also pay attention to positive aspects. Over time, it is easy to develop positive thinking habits and approach problems from a positive perspective when faced with difficulties. We can usually search for and record things with our children that make us feel happy, grateful, or thankful throughout the day. Before going to bed at night, we will discuss for a while what beautiful things happened today and share them with each other. You will find that by frequently discovering beauty, children’s thinking will change, and their eyes will have more truth, goodness, and beauty. 3 diary entries and self reflection. We can record our own experiences, thoughts, and feelings with our children every day, and take a few minutes to reflect on ourselves: What negative thoughts did you have today? How does it affect one’s own behavior and emotions? For example, if a child is punished for copying the text, the child’s thoughts on this matter are: it’s really unlucky to be punished for copying. Or: Punishing plagiarism has also helped me, making me more familiar with the text. The first type of feeling may be anger or annoyance; The result will be reluctantly writing about the second feeling, which may be happiness and positivity; The result will be a very thoughtful writing that, through reflection, can guide children to gradually adjust their way of thinking and become more positive. At the same time, when we encounter bad things, we also try our best to reflect on ourselves in front of our children, set a good example for them, parents are not perfect, and let children see how their parents reverse their thinking. 4. Positive self dialogue and cognitive restructuring: After the third step of reflection, children’s awareness ability will also improve. When there is a voice in their heart saying “I can’t do it well”, they will immediately realize that this is negative thinking and remind themselves to change it to “I can try.” When encountering difficulties or challenges, they will learn to look at them from different perspectives. This is too difficult, I can’t do it “has been transformed into” What can this challenge teach me? This is an opportunity for growth. “By constantly changing their way of thinking, children’s cognition will gradually improve. At the beginning, they may not be able to do well, so parents should change first and influence their children. When the child makes the first progress, we should affirm it in a timely manner, and the child will gradually form a positive cycle. In the future, when encountering bigger difficulties, they will also take a positive attitude. Establishing positive interpersonal relationships: Children are easily influenced by their environment, and we should also talk to them about their friends at appropriate times to see if their friends around them are positive or negative. Everyone is an energy field, and interacting with positive and optimistic people can also influence a child’s way of thinking. Children can participate in active communities such as interest groups and study groups, and in a positive atmosphere, they will also be positive and proactive. Meditation and Focus Practice allows us to focus all our attention on the present moment and avoid getting entangled in unpleasant topics when dealing with unexpected situations. For example, we can teach children to pay attention to their own breathing, which older children can understand. I will teach children to exhale like seeing a white cloud in their nostrils, then inhale and suck in the cloud again. Continuously practicing like this not only improves self-awareness, but also effectively enhances concentration, keeping the brain calm and clear when facing pressure and difficulties in the future. Cultivating positive thinking at the end is a continuous process that requires our patience, patience, and patience. It’s much more important for us to spend some time with our children doing these exercises every day than watching them make a few mistakes. Helping our children build a strong inner world, even if they score 59 now, they will return as kings in the future. Let’s work together to create a blue sky for the growth of our children.
