Energizers vs. Drains

8/16/2012

0 Comments

 
If you work with or have children of your own, consider this:

Children are energized and motivated by:

•  Goals and Collaboration

•  Appropriate Tools and Resources

•  Understanding “How Things Really Work”

•  Shared Risks and Rewards

•  Challenges and Difficulty

•  Feedback

•  Appropriate Boundaries

•  Music, Friends, and Fun!

Children are drained by:

•  Insufficient Tools and Resources

•  Unclear Rules and Misfit Consequences

•  Conflicting Goals & Objectives

•  Excessive Competition

•  Lack of Expectations

•  Unclear and Inconsistent Boundaries

•  Lack of Consequences
