What will you do as a parent?

Every parent wants his child to be a successful person.
Our parents too wanted us to be successful and now we also wish the same for our children, that they do well in their life.
As a parent, we try to impart right lessons to our children. At times we succeed and other times we fail to impart the right lessons.
Read the following situation and see how will you handle this situation as a parent.
Summer holidays are over and schools are opening tomorrow. You are having dinner when your child announces that he had to finish a project report which needs to be submitted tomorrow.
When you ask why he did not do earlier, he has no answer since he was lost in the joyous freedom of holidays.
What will you do now as a parent?

If it is first time then can move ahead with a little warning and help him to complete by overnight. But if it becomes a habit then a continuous monitoring is a obvious. This comes from lack of discipline, and need to focus that. If he can discipline himself, this type of negligence will automatically take care.

Deliberate practice improves our success in an interview

It is a deliberate effort. It requires one to break down the required skill into smaller chunks and practice systematically and repeatedly. Performance improves over time based on the number of times an activity is performed with timely and correct feedback. It is not just the number of hours of practice but quality matters. It is not mindless repetition but one needs to incorporate feedback to improve. Seeking feedback and reflecting on one’s performance to guide subsequent practice sessions improves the performance.

Deliberate practice based on small, achievable, specific steps for meaningful improvement. To gain mastery, you need to · - Start early - If you have decided to improve your interview skills performance, then it is important to start well before. It is not something which you can acquire a night before the interview schedule date. · - Set a specific goal – You choose your goal and stick to it. (Answering 50-100 questions, 2 mock interviews…) · - Discuss with colleagues and know the trends. Learn from job websites and figure out the type of questions asked. · - Think, write your responses for the most common job questions. Don’t avoid this step. Writing is preparation and practice. No one can learn football by reading football articles. · - Improve your responses based on feedback from your friend and senior · - Stay committed to your goal and stay positive

Consistent, systematic practice will see you through the interview. Take a challenge and attempt one question a day for the next few days. Think your story for each question and prepare your response. Seek feedback and build into your response.
