In life some people are born great, some make their way to greatness, while some live their whole life never to see greatness. That fact that God can make someone who no one expected to be great, great is true. This is what people call ‘God factor’. Unfortunately, the ‘God factor’ does not work for everyone. Most people born and raised from a humble background have ended up becoming great, and even sometimes greater than those born of a silver spoon. This goes to tell us that the background of a child does not in most cases determine what the child will become in the future. Background can affect the child in the training process, but will not tell who the child will grow up to become. Today, we have presidents of nations, governors, successful businessmen, who were born with nothing but grew up to become great. This is why parents must prepare their children for the future. Prayer is always good. But in this case, prayer without doing nothing is not good enough. To get your child’s future bubbling, here are some genuine facts that have been proven to open doors of greatness for people over time.

1. Looks

You won’t believe the charm that is behind people’s looks. This is not about ones dressing, even though dressing works. Looks here talks about your level of cuteness, handsomeness or beauty. Handsome guys and beautiful ladies have this preference they enjoy in the midst of many. I am quite sure you must have seen a situation like this. Where people are been given more attention just because they look cute. This is always noticed during interviews, school activities, and other public places. Everyone wants to be close to a good-looking guy or lady until they see reasons why they should stay away.

2. Boldness

Teaching your child to be bold is another good thing you can do for your child. This is not the boldness to disrespect. But to be composed, organised, and not quivering or being nervous. A child that shows a charisma of boldness can go places. Most parents have ended up dousing this trait in their child by an endless scolding, leaving the child weak and timid.

3. Names

There is something remarkable and powerful about names. People’s files and documents have gone to appropriate offices just because the file conveyor like their names and wish to show kindness to whoever is bearing the name. Ten persons who appear to qualify for a director position in a firm were brought to the CEO for selection. On sighting a name that looks so nice in pronunciation, he appointed the individual to be the director of his company. Parents need to give beautiful names to their children. Name that will cause people to like them even before seeing them.

4. Skillfulness

How skillful is your child in his field of study? Every child needs skill. A skill that will go alongside with his profession. Skills give a child the opportunity to start making money even before leaving school. Giving a child a skill is giving a child a key to the future.

5. Being smart

Today’s world needs smart people. People who can bring a solution to the diverse problems of our world. This is why certification is almost becoming useless. Problem solvers and solution providers are all companies are now looking for. Helping a child to understand this on time, can make the child begin building up his or her ability to think out solutions to problems even before anyone does. Also seeking the child’s opinion in the family meetings can help build this trait in the child.
