 | Positive Push by Jim Taylor The challenge of balancing childhood achievement and happiness often puts parents in a position of uncertainty. If children are pushed too hard, they may rebel and achieve neither success nor happiness. If parents don?t push enough, their children may be self-satisfied and unmotivated. Parents often feel they must choose between two alternatives: sheltering their children from the cruel realities of the world so they can experience a happy childhood or driving their kids so they can get into the best schools and achieve financial success as adults. Dr. Taylor avoids this either/or choice that parents face and, instead, shows that there is a better course for parents and children: achievement and happiness can be mutually inclusive. By providing active guidance and positive support, parents free their children to seek out and pursue true success and happiness in life. Dr. Taylor distinguishes between children who simply achieve success from those who are successful achievers--children who are successful in their achievement efforts and gain great satisfaction and joy in those efforts. POSITIVE PUSHING provides insights into the Three Pillars of Successful Achievers--self-esteem, ownership, and emotional mastery. The Three Pillars provide parents with the rationale, understanding, and tools to raise their children to be confident, motivated, emotionally mature, and joyful. POSITIVE PUSHING is a breakthrough book because it gives parents permission to push their children. Dr. Taylor advocates the use of positive pushing to encourage children to become successful achievers. He describes why pushing has gotten a bad rap over the past 30 years, why it is essential for parents to push their children, and most importantly, how to push them--the most effective ways to push, how hard to push, and when to let up.
