What Successful People did during their spare time to get to where they are

Have you ever had that one person you knew, who back then, was probably at the same level as you in terms of success in life?

Then you lose touch for a number of years, and suddenly you cross paths and find that person to be at a completely different success level compared to you?

Have you ever wondered what the difference was? Or asked yourself, “We have the same 24 hours in a day. What are we doing differently?”

How to Respond Positively and Make Suggestions when someone gives Stupid Ideas

It’s #wisdomwendesdays and it’s time to share something I learned.

Have you ever been in a situation where someone presents you with an idea, and you just don’t know whether you’re going to laugh or cry at how dumb or stupid the idea is?

Future of Learning: The Flipped Classroom

For today’s #FutureFridays topic, we talk about the Future of Learning – The Flipped Classroom.

Traditional Classroom

Have you ever been bored sitting in a classroom?

Then all the instructor does is blabber on about the theoretical stuff, and then you thought that it’s probably been the same material being used over and over again across different classes?

Have you ever found it challenging that when you get off class and do homework, you have to do it all alone by yourself, with no one to guide you?

Is there a better way?

Now, have you ever wondered if there’s a better way to learn where it won’t have to be so boring?

And that when you go and do homework, did you ever wish you could just solve for the homework with the rest of the class, guided by the instructor, instead of having to do it all by yourself?

If you answered yes to the above questions, then a Flipped Classroom setting is the right kind of learning style for you.
