Once we become parents, we always want to give the best to our children. What good habits should we focus on during our children's growth? Why are so many people from the mainland investing in immigration to Hong Kong? I have summarized the 7 good habits that parents in Hong Kong value.
1 Proactive - I Am Responsible for My Life
I take responsibility for myself and am proactive in my actions. I manage my behavior, attitude, and emotions. When I make a mistake, I do not blame others. I will do the right thing even if no one is watching, without needing someone else to tell me to do so.
2 Goal-Oriented and Plan-Driven
I set plans and goals before doing things. I engage in meaningful tasks that have a positive impact. I am an important member of the class and contribute to school affairs. I aspire to be a good citizen.
3 Prioritize Tasks - Work Comes Before Play
I spend time on important matters. I am courageous enough to say no to things that are not appropriate. I set priorities, create schedules, and execute my plans. I maintain discipline and keep my tasks organized.
4 Consider Problems from a Win-Win Perspective - Benefit Yourself and Others
I am courageous in pursuing what I want, but I also consider the needs of others. I make deposits into others' emotional bank accounts. When conflicts arise, I seek solutions that balance both parties' needs.
5 Understand Others Before Seeking Understanding for Myself
I listen carefully to others' ideas and feelings. I strive to understand issues from their perspective. I do not interrupt or disturb when others are speaking. I feel confident in expressing my own ideas. While others speak, I look them in the eye.
6 Collaboration - Working Together Is More Effective
I value others' strengths and learn from them. I get along well with others, even if they are very different from me. I can collaborate effectively in a team because I know that cooperation leads to better solutions than working alone. I maintain a spirit of humility.
7 Sharpening the Saw - Seeking Health and Balance
I pay attention to my diet, exercise, and sleep. I spend time with family and friends. I can learn many things in various ways, and learning is not confined to school. I help others in meaningful ways.
