Tips For Aspiring Leaders

-
There is one thing that I will never ever regret in my life. That I grub the opportunity to be in Kilala ES. I have many things that I should reflect upon. Distance and physical obstacles is one thing. Motivation is another. I have learned that job will always be difficult no matter what. There will be times that you consider stopping your course. Then things will go crazier storms will blow their vilest surges.You will be shaken, you will struggle. You will fall and will crumble into pieces to carried away by the currents. There is nothing that can beat doing for the sake of doing. That moment when you started working for the sake of working. For the accomplishments of goal. Leadership and the kind of community is also critical. Below are the things that I will never ever fail to consider whenever I become a leader.

1. Be a goal oriented leader. 

2. Always build a good relationship with everyone. Share your goals and involve everyone in  planning. There is no sweeter working condition that working with individuals who believe and care for each other.

3. Be always sure that roles are clearly stated. Utilize your manpower, use them where they are effective. Do not send them in an unfamiliar territory when there is someone out there able to achieve victory in the easiest way possible.

4. Always do everything in advance.

5. Job is already a savage thing. Do not make it worse. Learn to stand for what is right. Fight for those who stand with you.

6. Stay humble and meek but show your strength. Recognize your weaknesses so that you will become strong. 

7. Life's greatest battle is against pride. Conquer pride, and make and empire of friendship. Show the world what you can do with the slightest existence of you, bragging it.

8. Members follows their leader. That is a given but towards a successful outcome, members follow best if they follow a leader worthy to be followed.

9. Be a leader that your members would willingly die fighting for you. Do not use your members. Mobilise them. Bring them up and hold them together in unity. 


But after all I don't want to lead I write this for individuals out there who has the dream of leading. After all life is what you want to be. We live for a purpose. One big reason of unhappiness might be our failure to fulfill our purpose. Another is that we are deprived the chance to reach our full potential. Live life and explore your limits. Eat breakfast at the top of the mountain if you feel like it. We are all leaders of our own selves. As I transfer new things and new horizons will unfold before me. Above everything there will always be countless and countless of obstacles. I struggled because for a year I have fought a wrong war. I have fought for the wrong causes and I have fought on a wrong battlefield. I was placed in an unfamiliar territory. I was left with nothing. I was a victim of gruelling politics inside the bureaucracy of the Department of Education. But lucky is me in my ability to learn on even the most vile environment. All I want to say is. Watch out for me. I will become a better educator than any of those who got me into trouble.

Why Teachers Should Read Paulo Freire as A Teacher: A Reading Guide for Freire

JERONE AVEL S. CANSINO, MAED   In this article, I want to share one particular book. This book is titled “Pedagogy of the Oppressed,” and for me, this is one of the best Philosophical pieces written about the impact of education on human society. It is a seminal book written by Brazilian educator and philosopher Paulo Freire. He published it in 1970. Here, he presented a critical and transformative approach to education and is often considered a foundational text in the field of critical pedagogy. I would love to say that as a teacher, this work has influenced me far beyond my four-year professional education training during my undergraduate school years. I have heard (or read) somewhere that you know you are reading a good Philosophical work when you get yourself disturbed and when your perception of reality is shaken. This exactly happened to me. The book is rather short as it is only composed of 4 Chapters. The first chapter justifies the “ pedagogy of the oppressed .” Here, he...

The Message of the Talking Tree

The Message of the Talking Tree Jerone Cansino Look at the tree illumined by the shadow of the night.  Look at him as watch the waves. As he watch the water break itself as it hit the ground, look at him.  Look at how he witness the change of seasons and how he count the appearance of the sun.  Look at the tree. Look at him how let go of his leaves and hold on to the same. Look at him as he grow with his feet firmly planted on the ground. Look at the tree, look at how he sing with the melody of the wind. Hear his cry as men destroy his kind with the least appreciation of their importance. Look at the tree as he shelter the small birds look at him. Look at him and hear him speak. Hear all the lessons he want to teach. Hear all those advises he wants you to heed. Look at him, look at him. He does not walk but he do exist. He does not work but he does serve. He gives more than he receive, he is indeed. ...
