常常感恩,常常夸胜,常常祝福

I hear, and I forget
I see, and I remember
I do, and I understand

One of the greatest challenges to teaching is the different ways pple learn. It was said that we only use 10% of our brains in our entire lifetime, and we rem only about 10% of the stuff just by hearing, 50% by hearing & seeing, and 90% if we hear, observe and do it. These numbers are just arbitrary, bcuz only geniuses rem 10% of everything they hear, the rest rem less. No wonder i can rem only so little from my past education.

You see, I was wondering why after 5 days of attending sch, our poor youths sit thru another 2 hrs of SOL/Post-E lecture followed by 2 hrs of sermon? I'm not blaming the system, but smth doesnt seem to be right. I can feel the weight when I reflected on last sun's experience. No wonder after the weekend I feel more tired. No wonder our pple are learning so much, yet learning so little... no wonder when the boys beside my bus seat were so excited about the PSP than discussing about wat they've learnt earlier, & no wonder pple fell asleep in church.

No wonder for the 1st 22 yrs my life was so unproductive. But I'm glad I'm still growing. I discovered 4 main areas of growth as I was talking with Ryanham on sun. These 4 main areas are: Physical, Intellectual, Emotional & Spiritual. I'm so thankful to God that I'm not a one dimensional being. Sons, I pray we will diligently develop all these faculties to their fullest this year. Playing dota only uses the Physical & Intellecctual aspect. Becoming a spiritual father uses all of them. No wonder the G12 vision is so powerful. Live and Grow. Be always thankful, always victorious & always a blessing to all. Get out of your comfort zone. Allow God to stretch ur faith. Live an impossible life. If we don't live life to its fullest, then its really not worth living at all.
