Basic 16 attributes that are important for life education
Perception
To learn conceptualization
The human brain’s capacity for abstract thought helps us mould reality in useful ways. An apple is real, it can be seen; the Earth’s gravitational force can be felt; but the explanation of gravity is abstract. For complex tasks, we need to understand abstract concepts. This requires us to train our perception.
Curiosity
Exercises built around inquisitiveness
Curiosity is the quality to explore, investigate and figure out. All human development depends on it. It’s what drives learning, knowledge and skill. It is an emotional reflex that responds to conditioning. These games are designed to promote curiosity, to acquire the comfort with the unknown that’s essential to thinking afresh.
Personality
Focused around evolving a sense of self
For a person to make a valuable contribution requires independence of thought and action. An independent thinker doesn’t just demand space for himself/herself; he/she gives space to others for their personality. Such a person is more confident; less likely to feel insecure in the face of criticism and failure, more likely to convert negative outcomes into positive learning.
Imagination
Activities to ignite it
Everything civilised - a skyscraper, a culinary dish, a software program—begin as ideas imagined by people. Each baby is born with a fertile imagination. It needs nurture. Instead, regimented schooling nullifies our children’s ability to be imaginative. We offer a series of games - that encourage children to imagine. To set the mind at ease with originality. To make a habit out of creativity.
