For this couple of weeks, i would be doing a series of lessons. basically, it is what i can learn and obtain from my everyday life. There is a saying which goes "happiness is not about getting everything, its about getting it from whatever you have" so, i came up with my very own one, which says "learning is not all about sitting and listening to teacher or parents, its also about learning something from our everyday lives" I say this because learning from ourselves places a higher impact than learning from others.

Lesson 1#:
Doing something and doing something well is 2 different things.

I was firstly inspired by a poet named Benjamin Jonson. He once said: to speak and to speak well are 2 different things. which sparked a new perspective to public speaking. So i merely altered it, turning it into something i strongly believe in.

Everyone does something each day, but whether the result is good, excellent, outstanding, terrible or even disastrous, depends on the person him/herself. I said this sentence while i was talking with a friend concerning prefect duty. Many lost their reason to be in the prefectorial board, while many try to do it well, or at most show themselves worthy, i don't know for what reason. But ultimately, it boils down to whether students listen and obey and thus the school is kept disciplined.

I'm not saying that once school discipline is not present in a student, then all the prefects really suck or just.. suck. But i'm trying to say that when one is doing well, there is no sense of fear, scared, intimidated present in that prefect. So in the end, i hope i am achieving it.

So likewise for studies and other priorities. Whether to do it wholeheartedly, without complain or a feeling of dislike, or to simply place a handful of effort and deem that it will be an excellent work, its all up to oneself. So in the end, a difference starts from you!
