“If you give all you are, all you do in order to acquire perfection, you will feel that the support is there, always guiding, showing the way. And if there is a difficulty, then instead of wanting to fight, you hand it over to the Supreme Wisdom to deal with it.”
Our children are gifts of God, born unique. They have a future of their own. It is up to us to build it up or break it. Let us be considerate and kind towards them. Don’t think for them, but help them think for themselves. Set an example before them. Let them learn from us the lessons of love, good behaviour, and how to live in this society.
This, I am sure, will help them build their “Winning Personality” to lead a happy, contented, peaceful life and establish a holistic global society.
It is essential that you should Plan to Learn and Learn to Plan. The handbook titled “Let Learning Be a Joy and Teaching a Pleasure” is designed to help you learn and plan simultaneously.
Remember, you are our future; the future of our beloved nation in the years to come.
You are entering an important phase in your life. Your actions and behaviour, both inside and outside the school, will shape your future. Our responsibility is to guide you, with the cooperation of your parents, to prepare for the career of your choice.
You have the potential to become a successful individual. We are here to support you in achieving the best in life. Success is never achieved by accident or chance. A firm determination, coupled with planned hard work, is the only way to reach your goals.
Before long, you will become doctors, engineers, lawyers, administrators, pilots, entertainers, educators, police officers, designers, architects, computer professionals, mechanics, businessmen, builders, financiers, and government officers, and you may even be the leaders of tomorrow.
A mediocre teacher tells, a good teacher explains, a superior teacher demonstrates, and a great teacher inspires.
So, be a great teacher because pedagogy is the profession that shapes all other professions.
Endorsing the thoughts expressed in the greatest letter by Abraham Lincoln, I request all teachers to read the letter, as it is the repetition of affirmation that leads to belief, and once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.
With immense pleasure and pride,
Yours truly,
