Four General Guidelines for Educational Challenges

You mean I Can Handle Things Better??

  1. Look at challenges as opportunities from which to learn a new or tweaked skill.
  2. Spend time analyzing the challenge before just throwing some solution at it.
  3. Consult with others--you are not the first or the last to face this challenge.
  4. Let the ones who are impacted by your solution have a voice in suggesting an course of action.

The Journey IS the goal

Be your true--and greatest--you.  Laugh and have fun.  Reach for the nmountaintop but ENJOY the climb.
                                                                      -Robin Sharma
Perspective and attitude make for a pleasant, relaxed countenance.  Letting the minor things get under your skin (waiting the extra 15 seconds for a car to pass instead of pulling out in front with clenched teeth) makes it hard to appreciate being alive.  Rejoice in your being here!  Love the lovely things, and let go and disregard the unlovely.  Truly, your attitude will make or break your outlook on life.  The journey can be difficult and harsh, or you can take what life melts out and see the best in it as it will strengthen you or tear you down--you decide, you have the power to enjoy the journey, or be beat up by the journey.

How's Your Heart?

"Possess a pure, kindly, and radiant heart"
~Hidden Words of Baha U Liah


True spirituality are those meditations which cause you to be all the good you can be. It is that which makes you shine in words and deeds. Your love of human kind is such that no one thinks naught but the most complementary of you....and those with a compliant, do not truly know you.
