One QuoteÂ
âWisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.â ~ Albert Einstein
Wisdom is not that you learn from schooling or from books. Itâs a powerful and effective technique to make people fall in your way of thinking.Â
A man full of wisdom appears to be a more intelligent, wise and humble person.
One Article :Â
Be Creative : Donât ever burn down your creative thinking. In todayâs world, talent is so overrated, but creativeness is not. Being creative is not an event, but itâs a process.Â
Itâs not that if someoneâs parents are creative, then only their children will also come up being so creative. Creative thinking takes time, grit, hard work, perseverance and patience and continuous practice.
I want every child to be more creative - they need to explore more, they need to ask more whenever they are stuck on any problem, they should listen more, they should act more, they should decide more, and all this wisdom will come before the child is more creative.Â
Anyone can practice Creative Thinking, but that child only needs to be consistent and passionate about doing so. I would like to recommend every child to practice hard work, grit, and apply continuous effort on any task that you love, if you want to be more creative.Â
Be Interested : Being talented is overrated - but being interested in doing something is not.Â
I want every child to be interested in whatever you are doing in your life. Talented people only go and learn from above the surface of anything, that is they don't learn and practice things with much effort, interest and curiosity.Â
Interested people, on the other hand, love to go deeper into any topic and want to learn every process very reluctantly, passively and calmly. They have endurance, creativity, curiosity to learn more and to dive more deeper into the concepts of learning - just because they are Interested in learning new things.
So, to every child who is reading this - learn this power of getting interested in everything that you love.Â
Be Different : Being different is never too bad, but itâs beautiful.Â
Being different from the rest of the crowd encourages your Independent thinking and you no longer think for others, but you are capable of achieving and thinking more for yourself and by yourself.Â
I want to recommend every child to not be scared of being different from others - donât think that you donât fit inside this box, full of people, buttry to think outside of this box. Try to realise and know your potential by coming out of your comfort zone. Donât feel or be insecure that you are different, because in thinking that way you will only limit your thoughts and capabilities.Â
Realize and know that being different is *your* and your only ultimative competitive advantage - itâs your edge.Â
So, just be you and compete with the world. Iâm pretty sure youâll win.Â
Be Persuasive over being argumentative : Being persuasive is one of the rarest elements Iâve ever found in any child.Â
I want every child to be more persuasive over being argumentative.Â
Persuasive people never argue - they listen, think, decide, act and execute passively without any arguments.Â
So, try to be more persuasive as itâs the only edge thatâll take you very far to your dream world. Itâs one of the rarest pieces of wisdom Iâve ever found on any child.Â
Work hard : Every child needs to learn that if he/she wants to accomplish anything in his/her life, they need to work very hard for it.Â
It doesnât matter whether you win or lose. The on;y thing that matters is how much effort, hard work and perseverance youâve put in that *game* of life to win it.Â
The child who is lazy and doesn't want to do hard work - doesnât want to learn anything. Learning comes with hard work and knowledge is the result of that and the only and sole purpose of the knowledge is to act decisively and calmly for whatever you have practiced or learned from it.
Remember - Hard work always pays off. So, never give up.
Show up in the darkest hours of time : Everyone and anyone can show up in the good times, but I want every child to learn to come up in the darkest hours of time for people when they desperately need you the most.Â
It takes a lot of self-believe and bravery to come up in anyone elseâs darkest time. They only need some condolence, support and some time with your loved ones.
It's easy to be there for people to celebrate their wins.It takes character to show up for them in their darkest hour.
People never forget who supported them when the chips were down.
Be the friend who is always thereâin good times and bad.
Open and change your mind : I would recommend every young child to be open to circumstances and be open to everyone.Â
See, life is very uncertain. There are so many unpredictable things that will definitely happen around us. The thing is that we all will change someday or the other. So, being open to everyone, gives us the opportunity to look at our problems and share with some people and friends and most importantly our family.Â
Operate in your zone of genius: Every child is genius, but if youâll compare a fish with a monkey for itâs ability to climb a tree, then it will end all itâs life assuming that itâs stupid.Â
I believe that genius is all in us. Itâs just the ability that we need to find that genius and to operate in the zone of competency and genius.Â
I want every child to be more experimenting. They need to experiment things, need to get out of their comfort zone, need to challenge their potential and most importantly they need to understand and deliver their passion in which zones they have the most expertise.
Donât try to do what 99% people in this world are doing, You donât need to copy from others. Just be unique and do what the remaining 1% of the people are doing.Â
Be kind to others : At whatever phase in your life they may achieve, but I need every child to understand the value of other people too. Every child must respect every elder being, only who should be respected.Â
Try to glean some wise and wisdom full principles and learn from your elders and their blessings will always be upon you whenever you need them the most.
Listen more and argue less : The Dalai lama once said - âWe all have two ears and one mouth, so we should listen twice to what we say.â
This is the most virtuous principle that I need every child to learn from. By listening more, you allow your own subconscious to learn more from others, value their opinions, value their perspectives and their wisdom full nature.Â
This is one of the most important stoic principles of life that I want every child to learn from. Stop being argumentative, rather be persuasive.
Persuasive people donât argue. They listen, act, decide and value the opinions of others.Â
Be curious and creative always : Whatever, the situation arises, always be curious and be there in the difficult times. Donât hinder your curiosity at the sight of someoneâs bad assumption, that you look stupid and you are not curious.
Curiosity helps us to think more, act more and want something more from us. If you have any queries or if you are curious about anything, donât hesitate, but ask( or search) for your problems.Â
Be creative and never hold your fear. Practice creative thinking. Do perseverance, hard work and grit to perform well in everything you do.Â
Be happy always : This is the most important and virtuous quality of human beings. Try to be happy and always have a smile on your face at every stage of your fulfilled life.
Happiness is not a destination, but a journey that must be felt at every part of our lives.Â
Life consists of all failures, winnings, ups and downs. But that doesnât mean that we canât be happy all the time. As Dumbledore rightly said - âWe all can see light and shine in the darkest and darkest of hours, but only if we remember to turn the lights on.â
So, be happy and make people happy around you.Â
