Support your own project: Change Your Life

Self-Awareness, Coaching, Education, Psychology
Pedagogía&Psicología

Dear reader, I am going to reflect on something that can transform our relationship with ourselves:
 

How many times we let our personal projects later? How many times we work hard and we give the best of ourselves in other projects?

Sure sounds like the situation you: at work or in a partnership you are able to give my best to you, strictly fulfill the commitments with your boss and your colleagues.As it should be! And that honors you as a professional and as a colleague.

Now consider another thing when you have to work for a project that is yours, yours ... you involve intimately so much energy? Would you spend so much time? Do you strive to obtain maximum results?

Unfortunately not usually the case, always leave it for another day or so and abandon our dreams begin immediately ...
  Many times we ask even have personal projects or initiatives since, force quit, we have lost the habit of dreaming.

Tell you what: change the equation. Reflect, choose your project and jump to get it. You know very well, better than anyone: know what you're capable of achieving. In fact, as we discussed earlier you get every day when you work for others, so: you can get the same energies mobilized to fulfill your dreams.
Do not give up!
Moving!
Dare to support you!

Waldorf Education

 
Waldorf´s Educational Toy
Dear readers: I present a brief comment on a methodology that I find most interesting, Waldorf education.The origin of Waldorf education can be found in the Austrian scientist and philosopher Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925). Steiner developed a philosophical system called anthroposophy, in the author's words: "Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge that would lead to the spiritual in the human being to the spiritual in the universe." A fundamental part of that system found philosophical approaches and educational practices that are known as Waldorf education.The name comes from the first Waldorf school that Rudolf Steiner created precisely to educate the children of the workers of the Waldorf Astoria cigarette factory in Stuttgart, Germany. After almost one hundred years since then, and due to its success, Waldorf schools have expanded and consolidated over 90 countries. Today Waldorf school is recognized as a serious educational alternative and is recognized by UNESCO.

  
But ... what makes a school different from the conventional Waldorf?Waldorf education is an educational model that achieves the goals set by the basic curricula of the countries in which their schools are implanted.The key difference is in how: how teachers address teaching and everyday students in a Waldorf school education makes this one very unique way to educate.
 
The teaching methodology is so large and complex that it requires, in addition to a university degree, postgraduate training several years.I recently met a partnership that aims to create a Waldorf school in Seville, Seville Waldorf Association "Sunflower". The association is developing introductory workshops to publicize its methodology.The first impression I are raising these workshops is: The Waldorf School consciousnesses required by the entire school community. The candidate has to undertake a process of self-knowledge during their training and continuous review of the process for its educational work. The student's family has to be involved in the work of the school, participate and create an educational climate similar to home school there. The student is supervised by a teacher / a from the start of the day, the first act on entering class is the greeting, in which the teacher / to look at each student / ay notices their mood to try and support during classes. The artistic and creative activities, which both define this school, are imbued with a responsible job and focus on the student develops work habits awareness.In short: I'm enjoying it a lot this approach to education and I hope that soon all have the news of the creation of a Waldorf school in Seville.
