Teach your child to reward himself every time he takes a step towards one of his goals!
Once your child is goal setting, it's really important that he gets into the habit of rewarding himself when he completes a step towards one of his goals. That helps the whole goal setting process to be fun and enjoyable, rather than a chore, and means he is more likely to incorporate goal setting into his life permanently as he grows up.
Your child can learn to reward himself in many ways - a favorite treat, a planned activity with a friend - encourage him to plan something nice for himself whenever he takes a baby step and soon he will be an accomplished, successful goal setter!
Happy Goal Setting with Your Kids!
