  Never, Never Give Up: Teaching Children the Secret of Success “Never, never, never give up!” – Winston Churchill These powerful words carry a timeless lesson that every parent should pass on to their child. One common trait among people who achieve extraordinary success in life is that they refuse to give up, no matter how tough the situation becomes. This mindset has helped them fulfill dreams, overcome challenges, and rise above failures. But here’s the truth: people don’t give up when life is easy or business is thriving. They give up when everything seems to go wrong, when difficulties feel overwhelming, or when the journey feels too hard to continue. And that’s exactly where the difference between failure and success lies. Why Do Children Give Up So Easily? Recently, I met a parent who was concerned about her daughter. The child would start every new hobby—music, dance, drawing, swimming, even basketball—with great excitement, but quit after just a few weeks. When I ...

  Why Mindset Matters: Teaching Children to Play to Win What is the real difference between those who win and those who almost make it? Is it superior skills? Extraordinary capabilities? Or pure luck? The truth is — the difference is mindset. Take the Olympics for example. The gap between a gold medalist and a silver medalist is often just a fraction of a second. Both athletes train equally hard, follow world-class methods, and dedicate the same number of hours. Yet, one walks away as a champion while the other becomes a runner-up. The difference is not in their physical preparation, but in their mental preparation. The Champion’s Mindset vs. The Runner-Up’s Mindset The Champion says: “I will win. This is a do-or-die situation. I cannot and should not lose.” The Runner-Up thinks: “I hope I don’t lose.” Though subtle, these two mindsets create completely different actions, choices, and results. This same principle applies to children. A child who sets a goal of 10...

  What You Do Matters More Than What You Say: Be the Role Model Your Child Needs Meta Description (SEO – 155 characters): Children don’t follow words, they follow actions. Learn how parents can become role models and inspire children through positive daily habits. Introduction As parents and educators, we often focus on telling children what to do. But here’s the truth: children don’t just listen—they observe. What you do matters far more than what you say . At Viby International School , we believe that parenting and teaching are not about giving instructions but about setting the right example. Why Actions Speak Louder Than Words From eating habits to confidence, children imitate what they see at home. If you tell your child not to drink aerated beverages but stock your fridge with them, your words lose impact. Similarly, if you encourage your child to be confident but struggle to speak up yourself, your child notices that too. 👉 Key takeaway: Your actions set the foun...

Should You Ask Your Children to Work Hard? Is Hard Work Really the Only Path to Success? As parents, we often tell our children to “work hard” if they want to succeed. But let’s take a step back and ask ourselves: Is working hard the only formula for success? Many of us believe that it is. After all, we were told the same thing when we were young. And yes, hard work is undeniably important. But here’s the truth no one talks about enough: Hard work alone is not enough. If it were, every labourer, farmer, and worker toiling for hours should be living their dream life. But that’s not how the world works. What sets successful people apart is not just their effort. It’s their ability to think smart, act differently, and dare to break the mold.  Work Hard vs Think Smart: What Are You Teaching Your Child? When you only teach your child to “work hard,” you may unknowingly push them into two unhealthy mindsets: 1. The Over-Worker They get some results, and start believing ...

  What Stories Will Inspire Your Children? Every parent dreams of raising children who are motivated, resilient, and full of purpose. One of the most powerful ways to instill these qualities is by sharing inspirational stories of real-life achievers. Children learn best from role models they can relate to — people who started small, faced challenges, and achieved greatness through hard work and dedication. At Viby International School , we believe storytelling is an essential part of shaping young minds. When you narrate the life journey of achievers, you help your children see what’s possible and inspire them to dream big. Here are a few inspiring personalities whose stories can make a lasting impression on your children: 1. Sachin Tendulkar – The Boy Who Dreamed Big At the tender age of five , Sachin Tendulkar decided to dedicate his life to cricket. He even lived with his aunt and uncle as a child to be closer to his coaching classes. By sixteen , he was playing internat...
