“The gift of the east for humanity is to accept things. The gift of the west for humanity is to change things. That Yin and Yan, that duality we can accept totally and we can change it. That is total balance.� Marianne Williamson

In a fixed mindset, people believe their basic qualities, like their intelligence or talent, are simply fixed traits. They spend their time documenting their intelligence or talent instead of developing them. They also believe that talent alone creates success without effort. They’re wrong. In a growth mindset, people believe that their most basic abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work-brains and talent are just the starting point. This view creates a love of learning and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment. Virtually all great people have had these qualities. Carol S. Dweck, 2006 Mindset: The New Psychology of Success.

“Work begins when you don’t like what you’re doing. And if your life isn’t play, or if you are engaged in play and having no fun, well, quit! The spirit of the sacred space is Siva dancing. All responsibilities are cast off. There are various ways of doing this casting off, and it doesn’t matter how it happens. The rest is play.”

To wrap it all up; this is the educational roller coaster you can envision, design, prototype, built, implement and ride, all at the same time, by ‘being in the moment’ accepting and celebrate the ‘here and now’, teachers and students together, at www.CheckitCenter.com. Accept that there’s more than projects and intercultural exchange going on and that you will be tested on yin-&-yan principles like freedom and responsibility, action and meditation, failure and success. “It’s not enough to just go, be there, experience it, make friends, do interesting things and have a good time. Although this is a life changing experience, it becomes educational when there is: reflection, reorganization, new thinking and meaning-making in your life and within the community (Check-IT) you belong.” ~ Tashi I wish you ‘the Power to Flower’ :-)

We are now able to observe ourselves from a different perspective. We are now capable to step out of our own mind, out of
Change your perspective
our own body and understand who we really are, to see things the way they are. We become the observer of our lives. We realize that we are not that which we notice but, the observer of what we notice. 2500 years ago, Lao Tzu (abt.551-479 BCE) was trying to teach us just that, was trying to teach us how to get to this last stage of life, this spiritual stage: “Can you step back from your own mind and thus understand all things? Giving birth and nourishing, having without possessing, acting with no expectations, leading and not trying to control: this is the supreme virtue.”
