Abstract

The "Key" to Children's Future Happiness and Success
Let's train "resilience"!

The child wants to quit cram school or lessons because of something he/she doesn't like.
When a parent says, "Let's try it," the child becomes reluctant, saying, "I can't do it.
If they fail once, they worry that they will not do well the next time.

When raising children, such "stumbling blocks" are common. When they think of the adversities they will face in the future, such as taking entrance exams or finding a job, they often wonder if they will be able to cope if they falter in such a situation. These are unstable times when we cannot see the future even for the simple reason that we cannot see the future. Parents may hope that their children will grow up so that they will not lose heart even in the face of difficulties and failures.

Resilience" is a skill that is attracting a lot of attention. Resilience is the ability to bounce back quickly and persevere in the face of difficulties and failures. It is also called resilience or adversity. It has long been studied in the field of psychology and has recently become a topic of discussion as a power that determines success and is as important as IQ and educational background in global companies. In fact, it has been shown that resilience can be enhanced through training. By training resilience, you can nurture an "unbreakable heart" and develop a mind that will not be daunted by difficulties.
