How Children Can Succeed: Teaching Successful Skills and Mind Set
How children can succeed: teaching successful skills & mind set
Who would have thought that life can be so much more than what we could have envisioned it as children. Most parents spend most of their time telling children what they cannot do, what they cannot afford and that they are simply way too young to achieve anything in life.
But children can do more. Children can achieve greatness at an early age and yes, some children have even become millionaires. Some children not only run their own business, they are successful CEO's of profitable running companies. How do they do it? Where do they come up with these ideas? What kind of person does it take?
For example take Jason Finger:
It's hard to resist an ice-cold glass of lemonade on a hot summer day, and when you've just finished a run, it's even more likely you'll need to quench your thirst. That's why nine-year-old Jason Finger set up his lemonade stand next to a jogging path in downtown Manhattan, where he and his cousin were sure to get business selling Kool-Aid punch and lemonade. There's no shortage of business these days, either. Finger founded Seamless Web in 1999, a New York-based online food delivery service, which sold to Aramark in 2006. They were acquired by Aramark in April 2006. On June 8, 2011, Spectrum Equity Investors made a $50 million minority investment in Seamless and the company has now been spun out of Aramark into an independent entity.
In May 2013, Seamless announced the signing of a definitive agreement to merge with GrubHub to create a combined company to drive more orders to restaurants and for better user experience.
On August 9, 2013, Seamless and GrubHub completed their merger and now operate under the name GrubHub Seamless. The merger resulted in connecting diners with approximately 25,000 restaurants for online and mobile ordering across the United States and in London. In the first half of 2013, the combined organization processed approximately 130,000 orders a day.
All this started from a simple idea and carried forth by you guessed it - a kid. Who knew that millions could be made - no one, but that is how millions are created every year.
There are several books, magazine and online websites that talk about these miraculous children. Average everyday kids, who do more than just play online games, kick the ball around and watch TV all day.
Reading the book 'for Children how to become rich successful and do well in school'@ Amazon.com - we find that many of these children that are highlighted as being successful entrepreneurs at an early age - had a similar mindset, a way of thinking and looking at the world.
Much of the school system is frantically looking for the solution to our failing school system. What many teachers say is that the problem isn't the school - its how their students think, that is what is keeping them back from being successful. In school or in the world - how you face a challenge, the attitude you have toward learning: that is what will determine your success in any endeavor.
