How do you teach your children to value hard work? If lecturing isn't doing the job, maybe it's time to try a new approach. Michelle counsels a mom on how to support and encourage her eight-year-old child to reach his potential at school and on the soccer field.

"There is a belief out there that our children choose us. They choose to be with you for a reason. There is something they will teach you and something you will teach them."

In this podcast you will learn:

• How to remedy the disconnect between what you want for your child, and what they want for themselves

• When and how to motivate your child to reach their potential

• To manage expectations regarding grades and athletic achievement

• How to positively support your child while they work towards a goal

• The difference it makes to praise effort vs. outcome
