Anything Nabi

It has been a while.
Have a great weekend.
It would be wonderful to have that one more hour to stay in bed, affirming your strength and connecting with your inner self.
Go ahead. Breathe.

I have been advocating Whole Brain Teaching (WBL) since 2005, and probably will advocate it as long as I can.

Back in my classroom, i encouraged my students to process their thoughts using 3 steps:
ASK. THINK. GAIN.
What do you actually achieve from that?
Wider perspective. Going beyond concepts. Allies. Friends who would later on become integral to your growth.

Think. Ask. Gain. Thats all you need to do.

Let's try something creative today. Write a free-verse.
1. Imagine a season you like the most. Do you know that we have 4 seasons of summer here? My opinion. 😁🤭
A. Cool summer
B. Intense summer
C. Rainy summer
D. Cold summer
2. For the first 2 lines, describe that season.
3. For the next 3 lines, tell us the things the season showed you.
4. For the next line, tell us the emotion it brought out.
5. Then, describe the next season (the one that followed) .
6. End it up with the lesson you learned.
7. Pump up the TITLE from the images crafted at the 4th to the 6th line of your work.

The most effective 6-word prayer:
Lead me, Father, to Your ways.

It takes (really) strong will power to get these things done.
I will choose more (plus) books and more (plus) creating.
I know it is not easy but this is better than to mind the awful things around.

You know why I love summers?
The sun, the heat and humidity. It tells you you're alive.
You get burned, but you dont stay that way.
Then theres petrichor, that scent telling you everything soon will get washed off.
With Summer, you know, nothing will ever be the same.

Tired from all those things?
Before you start working today, look into your intentions. Why are you doing this and that? Spend 5 minutes of your time to honestly think about it.

At the end of every day, I make it a habit to ask myself a question, and write it in a notebook. (Yep, notebooks are my favorite, any kind, any size)
"What did I do to make my day great?"
Here's a sample statement:
Today, (give a situation) when my grandson met some of our guests, (what did you do and why it felt great), I told him to ask for their blessings. He reached out, offering his head. It felt great knowing he will grow up to be a fine young boy soon.
Now, it's your turn.
I would appreciate if you could share your thoughts on this.

Try saying Thank You a day.
Today is June 4th, so let's start with #4.
"Thank you for the virtual world that made humans reach out to each other positively."
What's yours?
