He is Bored or I am Just Dull.

He was talking about *little pal, E.
He continued, "This E, always looks sleeping in class. The work or assignments he handed in are all done in a rather slobby manner. I don't think he puts in effort. He looks so not-interested, so half-hearted. I think he has no interest to continue study."

"What do you think?" (Alemah, He knows I know that student.)

Oh my, oh my...
I must also comment??!! Erm...

The easiest way out is of course, "Ya lor, I agree with you."

But I decided to choose a different approach altogether, in an attempt to "mess up" his thinking a little.

I said ...
你的观察好入微哦。
我就没有想得如此深入了。
我认识他才没有多久，还没有机会与他好好儿的谈谈，
所以不敢下此定论。
他上课的时候的确看起来有一些无精打采。
可是我不敢说他对学习没有兴趣。
我只是认为...
- How come I am not able to captivate his attention?
- Maybe I am just too dull?
- What is lacking on my side such that I cannot draw his attention?
- Maybe my approach is just not that suitable for him?
- How am I going to make my lessons for interesting to him?
- Maybe the really boring one is me?

I know I am just a little “playful” here. Haha..

But, my idea is simply…
事情既然发生了，
问题不一定是在别人。
自己可能是问题的主因。
我们可否有这样的勇气来面对？

有一位作者这么说：

领导力不只是职场上重要的能力，其实，在家里也一样需要，父母就是一家的领导人。

一九九二年美国总统大选，老布希输给了柯林顿。布希的孙子当时就读小学三年级。选情揭晓的隔天，学校里，孩子在排队领营养午餐的时候，老师听到一个小孩嘲笑他：「输掉了，你爷爷输掉了！」

老师看了很心疼，正要阻挡，只见布希的孙子面带微笑，没有被激怒，也没有低头，从容不迫地说：「我相信柯林顿也会是一个好总统。」

老师听了好感动，浮上脑海的第一个念头就是：这个孩子的爸妈教得真好。有一句俗话说：「父母怎么做，孩子就怎么学。」这个故事可以凸显出，父母作为领导人，言行举止有多大的影响力。
