Ever wondered what makes Serene Williams so great? Or, Mozart and Bobby Fischer, for that matter? Well, you would say that it’s their exceptional talent in their field, and there is no denying the fact. However, would they have really become such stalwarts in their fields if they rested easy knowing that they have the talent? Certainly not, because even the finest talent needs to be appropriately molded to attain perfection through hard work and practice.
At Yuvashakti Model School, one among the top ten schools in Rohini, we believe ardent practice plays as much of an important role in helping kids acquire new skills as it does in honing their inherent abilities. And thus, be it any stage of life, practice is the one thing that holds the key to greater accomplishments and assured success. We are firm believers in the fact that with extended and intense practice, one can certainly develop extraordinary capacities and conquer the hardest hurdles. And on that note, we will discuss further in this article today the significance of practice and its role in driving young minds towards success.
Practice helps in overcoming their weaknesses
One of the foremost reasons for us to be such firm believers in the power of practice is that it helps children in overcoming their weaknesses. It can be a particularly difficult note in music or a hard problem sum in the math book, there is nothing that they can’t conquer with deliberate practice. As a matter of fact, it would not be an exaggeration to say that with enough practice, one can even turn their weaknesses into their fortes.
The sustained growth in the confidence of the kids
As mentioned earlier, sustained practice to attain any goal aids in overcoming the flaws and setbacks along the way. And, the impact of this is felt directly on the growing confidence of the young fledglings by removing the clouds of doubt and uncertainty from the young minds. At Yuvashakti Model School, one of the top ten schools in Rohini, we have seen that with continued practice to be better at anything, the self-belief of the children is restored, and the results of it are evidently spelled with their successes.
The key to developing perseverance and focus
If one simply accepts that they are particularly talented or lacking in a field and try to do nothing about it at all, there can be only little to no resultant personal improvement. Merely a few adjustments in the right manner and a bit of effort can turn the tables and help the kids to achieve all the bigger things that they are capable of. And, making an effort and those adjustments are what we call as practice: the surest way to attain perfection.
Getting the zeal to go out of the comfort zone
Going out of the comfort zone and trying out things that seem beyond our present abilities is something that helps us grow as a person. When we want to ensure the same for our kids, we will have to motivate them to practice hard at it so that they can find their new comfort zone in what was a previously unfamiliar and unchartered territory in their lives.
Learning the strategic ways to attain the success
Much of practice is also about learning and mastering the strategic ways to attain success. After all, practice is not about trying to become skilled at every aspect of an activity or project all at once. It is about figuring out the right technique to practice, breaking down the entire project into small and attainable goals, and finally, dedicating the adequate time needed to perfect each step. Thus, practice teaches the young ones a crucial lesson in attaining success by crossing one level at a time through effective strategizing.
As we have already outlined the value of practice for the young learners, it’s also important that we end our discussion by outlining our role in this regard. We, being the mentors and guides of young minds, are the ones who are shouldered with the responsibility to offer oodles of encouragement and motivation to the kids to make sure their efforts are relentless. This is why, at Yuvashakti Model School, we strive to channel the energy and potential of our young fledglings in the right direction. We believe that when kids know the value of practice and learn to utilize their potential in an optimum way, success becomes a natural outcome.
