What was something that you couldn’t do at all when you were a kid but you can do really well now?

Thinking hard about what I didn’t do well when I was a kid, but I can do really well now, I can’t think of anything. On the contrary, I was quite a good speaker on the stage in front of the people, but I am now a little bit nervous and suffer from lack of confidence. I feel that my competency has become deteriorated. However, giving a second thought, I have not changed a lot. What I am now is what I was. It is true that what’s learned in the cradle is carried to the grave. I was pretty bad at drawing or painting, and I’m still not good at it. I was not a good runner, and I still am. Eight five percent of who you are – your intelligence, your personality, and your social skills – is developed by the age of five. A child’s early years lay the foundation for all that is to come. The human brain develops the vast majority of its neurons, and is at its most receptive to learning, between birth and five years of age. Early education plays a critical role in that sense.

Happy Monday again Sir [이름]. ^^

I appreciate that you shared your insights about this topic.

I think I will agree on that you mentioned below that: a child\'s personality is developed at the age of five.

The most critical stage for a child is from four- twelve years old.

It is the time wherein kids will develop trust, confidence and so on.

Thank you for your time today.

I hope that you will have a great time with your family.

Good night. Sweet dreams. ^^
