October Life Skill: Initiative - To act/take charge before it is asked/done.
-Teach them to take responsibility.
Having them put their things away when they get home, keeping their room clean, their toys put up, etc on a daily basis form habits, which in turns leads them to taking the initiative to getting it done.
-Encourage them to do things on their own.
Allowing them to do things on their own, (i.e. getting their school things together, putting away their clothes, clean up their dishes, picking up trash, etc) builds their confidence. The more their confidence grows, the more they will want to take responsibility for.
-Setting a good example.
What better way to teach them to take initiative by showing them that you do? When you see that something needs to be done, announce it so that they see you are doing it. Kids will want to start to do things to model you.

Great place to start learning BJJ.
Peak has excellent coaches and great training partners. Give it a try if you are in the area
Peak has a great atmosphere full of wonderful teammates. No matter what your current fitness level and goals are, you will have support for your work and progress. I've been going to Peak, on and off, for 7 years. The on times make all of life night-and-day better than the off times. I've taken BJJ, Muay Thai, and fitness classes; you can't go wrong. Highly recommended - come see for yourself.
