Being
a good student
Confucius
wrote: ìa scholar is one who does not desire great accumulation of
wealth, but looks on any accomplishments as riches.î Presuming that
Confucius was speaking metaphorically in this instance, what does the
above quote mean?
It
becomes clearer if we change the word ìwealthî to ìwinningî.
We can then say that a student is one who holds earned accomplishment
from hard work as the greatest success. Winning, while nice, becomes a
lesser value than striving for educational excellence. Each of us is
an individual with our own strengths and weaknesses and each of us
learns at a different pace. Based upon this idea, we can expect to not
always be the best. The point is that winning is secondary to giving
education (or anything else) your best effort.
Sifu
George Michielsen of the Chinese Kung Fu & Tai Chi Academy says
being a good student means going to class regularly, doing your best
and participating actively in each dayís lessons. If you listen to
the lessons passed on by your masters or teachers, take time to think
about what you are being taught, practice and work toward success to
the best of your ability then you will increase your knowledge and
ability to perform.
A
good student is attentive to the dayís lessons and respectful to
teachers and other students. As Confucius wrote, for a true student
the greatest reward is learning.

The
Real D-E-A-L for Kids and Parents
Diet
- Environment - Attitude - Lifestyle The rates of childhood asthma,
allergies, ADD/ADHD, depression and cancer continue to rise in
Australia. This is despite the extra money we put into the medical
system each year. Perhaps that is because parts of the existing system
donít really serve our children or us any more.
The
current system is geared towards managing the symptoms of disease
through an ever-increasing and expensive battery of legal drugs. Many
of these drugs have serious and long-term side effects and do little,
if anything, to actually treat the cause of the illness.
Of
equal concern is the fact that logic, common sense and science tell us
that there are solutions to these problems that involve changes in our
Diet, Environment, Attitude and Lifestyle (DEAL) factors. But these
continue to be brushed aside at the expense of our childrenís
health.
Research
overwhelmingly shows that nutritional deficiencies (particularly in
the essential fatty acids), exposure to toxic chemicals in the home,
unhealthy and inactive lifestyles and negative attitudes are having a
large and negative affect on the health of our kids.
With
a little bit of information and with some small changes we can all
make huge improvements to our health and the health of our kids.
This
information and much more will be available at a life changing
presentation by Dr Peter Dingle on Monday September 27th at the
Whitfords Church of Christ, Scaphella Avenue, Mullaloo. Doors open at
6.30pm for a 7.15 start, and Dr Dingle will talk for 90 minutes about
the DEAL and how we can all achieve a healthier and happier lifestyle.
This
is a free community event sponsored by Mullaloo Community
Kindergarten, through a grant from the Community Kindergartens
Association.
Limited
seats are available so bookings are essential. Julie 94032171 / Dagmar
