Embrace the unknown : Break barriers and excel.

Every parent like to shower all the love and care to their kids. They never want their wards to be in any kind of problem or awkward situation. In process they may end up, growing their kids in a more comfort zone. What I like most about my Dad was the way he made us to face all the challenges. Even though he was capable providing all sort of comfort to us, but never made us to get habitual to them. Be it going out in hot extreme heat or to walking long distances. In my opinion he alwsys aim at making us more reslince and stronger by not allowing us to get into the comfort zone. Getting into a comfort zone is not a good sign in life. Staying in a comfort zone for too long can make us complacent and prevent us from growing. Comfort can give us a false sense of security, which can lead to stagnation and missed opportunities. If we don't do things that challenge us, we miss out on opportunities for growth. This is what makes challenges in life very importsnt factor in life.

Absence of challenges from life can prevent us from learning from our failures and developing resilience. It can prevent us from growing and understanding ourselves better. In current modern generstion, I have seen many parents are too reluctant in putting their kids in challenging mode. From providing all sorts of comfort at home to outside, they make sure their kids do get everything with ease. I am not saying that fulfilling child's wish is wrong, but apart from wish, the parents never allow their kids to face any tough situation. Our upbringing was not like that. We are habitual to face all kind of situation and challenges. Be it standing in long queues or travelling in public transport. We were ready for everything.

Challenges are what make life interesting

Challenges in life help us get stronger by building our resilience, forcing us to develop new skills and problem-solving abilities, and allowing us to discover our inner strength and potential when we overcome obstacles, ultimately making us better equipped to handle future difficulties. Key ways challenges can make us stronger:

Developing Resilience: When we face challenges, we learn to bounce back from setbacks and adapt to difficult situations, which builds our resilience and mental toughness.

Learning New Skills: To overcome challenges, we often need to acquire new skills or approaches, which expands our knowledge base and makes us more versatile.

Boosting Self-Confidence: Successfully navigating challenges can significantly boost our self-esteem and belief in our ability to handle future difficulties.

Identifying Strengths: Challenges can reveal our hidden strengths and areas where we excel, allowing us to focus on our positive attributes.

Improving Decision-Making: When faced with challenges, we are forced to make critical decisions, which can sharpen our decision-making abilities.

Promoting Personal Growth: Challenges can be a catalyst for personal growth, pushing us outside our comfort zone and encouraging us to explore new perspectives.

Developing Grit: Persisting through challenges cultivates grit, which is the determination to keep going despite setbacks.

Up for a challenge?

Parent-child relationships are important for shaping personalities, and can be close and emotionally charged. As children grow up, parents need to adjust rules to give their children more authority, and prepare them to be independent adults. It does not mean, that taking away the guidance from them. Till they grow and becomes mature, a parent should always remain a guidance force. Parent have enough experince to prevent their kids to fell into any prey. It is importsnt for parents to allow kidd to go out and face the world. Making them sit and not do anything m will make them unaware of the outside world.

I wanted my kids to be more stronger, and never get into a situation of complacency. Allowing them tondo things of own, handling critical situation amongbtheir friends or in schools or presenting themselves in society must be taught carefully. The world and the people around us are m3an and selfish. It is importsnt to make the kids more independent and stronger to meet any challenges.

Peace!
