The pressure to perform & fail… Things parents & kids can learn from Sports 🏏

India performed their best gave a tough fight at World Cup 2023. However, there’s always going to be someone who will win. These little wins and failures teach a lot especially for us and our children. Most importantly, how to solve our own problems and make decisions.

🏏 Failure is not a taboo. It’s okay to lose. It’s the journey that matters.

🏏 Hug them. Pacify them. Losing and winning are two sides of the same game. Accept it and continue to work on your weaknesses and strengths.

🏏 Learning is important. It’s not important to be perfect or to win all the time.

🏏 Embrace and accept failure - as much important for parents as for kids. Do not judge your child for failing.

🏏 Talk about it and understand the mistakes. Work upon them together.

🏏 Always reinforce positivity with your kids and encourage to continue pursuing personal achievements and bests!

18-year-old got hired as a Google engineer—his dad shares his No. 1 parenting rule: I take a 'hands off approach'

Stanley Zhong isn't your typical 18-year-old. He's not your typical Google software engineer, either.

Zhong graduated from Gunn High School in Palo Alto, California, earlier this year with a 4.42 weighted GPA, a 1590 SAT score and an e-signature startup called RabbitSign. He was also rejected or waitlisted from 16 out of the 18 colleges he applied for, including MIT and Stanford.

Nan, who also works at Google — as a software engineering manager — says he never had to force Stanley to practice coding, or push him to do well in school.

His No. 1 rule while raising his high-achieving son, he says: Take a hands-off approach.

Provide resources, not roadmaps
Being a hands-off parent doesn't mean disconnecting from your child's life, or failing to set responsibilities or rules. For Nan, it means allowing his son to explore his passions freely, he says.
"If there's anything Stanley wants to explore, we are there to provide help. If he wants to go on this particular path, we will help light the path," says Nan. "But in terms of how far he wants to go, how fast he wants to move on the path or whether he wants to change his course and go to another path, that's completely up to him."
