"Let's teach our kids to deal with a real emotion of fear of failing! So lets give them a chance to win!" , NOW YOU KNOW THIS SECRET!
- summer edition of 2024 ABACUS OLYMPIAD, Sunday, 11th August 2024.
It's important to understand that fear of losing or failure is not a weakness, but a sign that we care about our performance and results. It's this fear that pushes us to prepare better, to strive harder, and to give our best.
However, we must teach our children that failure is not the opposite of success, but a part of it. Every setback, every loss is a stepping stone towards success. It's an opportunity to learn, to grow, and to improve. As the famous author J.K. Rowling said, "It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all - in which case, you fail by default."
In the context of the Abacus Olympiad examination, losing should not be feared. Instead, it should be viewed as a learning experience. It's an opportunity to identify areas of improvement, to learn from mistakes, and to come back stronger in the next examination.
So, let's encourage our children to face their fears, to embrace challenges, and to learn from their experiences. After all, the journey is more important than the destination.
