Real Life Education by Caren Kate Cu, Core Team

School education only focuses on the MENTAL aspect. Traditional educators seem to forget that LIFE CHANGING EDUCATION happens when the four aspects of education are covered. The other three are EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL and SPIRITUAL.

"When I speak of Life-changing education, I speak of education powerful enough to change a caterpillar into a butterfly." ~ Robert Kiyosaki, Business School

We all start as the lowly caterpillar crawling around the leaves of our lives. We undergo changes, we grow and hopefully we become butterflies. Sadly though, not everyone can reach the highest form of change called the chrysalis. This is where the caterpillar stops crawling and begins to grow wings to be able to fly. Some get eaten with the problems of life, some die out of hunger of knowledge, some just get lost, never knowing they have the capacity to fly if only they focus on their growth.

MENTAL EDUCATION. These are cognitive skills. Reading, writing and arithmetic. Very important but not enough. Unfortunately, many people just settle with having this type of education.

EMOTIONAL EDUCATION. If IQ (Intelligence Quotient) is important, EQ (Emotional Quotient) is as important. In the real world, the people who get ahead are the people who make the most mistakes and learn from them. You would probably never have learned to ride a bicycle if you were punished for falling off and given a failing grade in bicycle riding. Do not be afraid to fail. Make mistakes, correct, learn and grow.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION. How can you progress if you know all the answers but are terrified of trying anything? You learn how to swim by jumping in the water. You learn how to play the guitar by practicing how to strum it. You learn by doing, not just reading or watching others do it.

SPIRITUAL EDUCATION. Your strength, courage and your will to succeed comes for you. Your spirit must believe in your capacity to grow as a better person. Doubts, reasons and excuses cripple you. Rid of them and you can be able to open your self to learning. You have the ability to be great, believe it!

Education and growth is a process. Be a beginner. Sooner or later, you will have wings like that of a butterfly, and you can be able to fly.
