lieves to be a dejected job to some beings. The burden of workload is certainly excruciating, the class size is too large, and there is only limited time in the day to do all the things we need to do and finish. Teachers are tired and burnt out and can hardly get up to go to work in the morning after having been so occupied in the night juggling between work and family. Have you ever known someone with the same experience or worse, experienced this yourself? Well, we are in this together. It is a fact-based thing that government employees are facing. And each of us is capable of solving this concern. Teachers are special beings carefully chosen by God to make a difference not limited to schoolchildren alone but to the whole of humanity.

A separate meeting between PBBM and the US President could have significant reverberations as it would be interpreted as diluting our country’s foreign policy that has kept the Philippines “equidistant” from all the major world powers. Meeting only at a reception for other headsof-state would diffuse any possible interpretation of a separate meeting between the presidents of the Philip pines and the United States.

Some six score years ago during the height of the people’s struggle against British Colonial Rule in India, Mahatma Gandhi’s “Satyagraha” (Love Force) approach to liberate his people from the clutches of imperi alism had manifested a principle that had not been given much at tention then but is now reverberating throughout the world. Gandhi’s state ment was, “If man has to be saved from doom, development must be in harmony with nature and not at its own expense.”

In the light of the eco logical disasters we have experienced and worsen ing at that, we should now do some reflections with reference to the above mentioned warnings that have not been taken heedoff at all.

Based on the research study of Oxfam, the re gime of one percent ad vancing corporate glo balization through NeoLiberal Capitalism has produced gross inequities where the total wealth of one percent is greater than the combined assets of the ninety-nine percent of the world’s population. There is so much venera tion to the profit motive that has already captured the mindset of all govern ments, all institutions, all universities and even of religious groups. As hu manity has been buried in unbridled materialism and consumerism, there is so much denigration of spirituality. Indeed, Mother Earth has been sacrificed to the altar of greed and profit.

3. Maintaining a happy and healthy family life as well as a ca reer When you can do both of the abovementioned endeavors, you will be indeed very outstanding. This particular success, and its pervasiveness to the teachers’ notion of what it meant to be successful, was agreed on more than any other. Teachers would not visualize themselves as an overall success if their achieve ments in the work sphere basi cally destabilized and deprived family life. If they could find themselves as having balanced their work and home lives in a manner that was largely vigor ous and viable, then it was an achievement based on deeply held beliefs about what mat tered most to them in life. It is very fulfilling to gain numerous successes in school as a result of feasible efforts and labors. Nonetheless, the welfare of our family should not be put at stake. There should be balance not only to our diet but to our career and family too. Learn to work successfully and have good time management because at the end of the day, time will not manage it for you.

Three Little Known Ways of Achieving Outstanding Accomplishment inTeaching

2. Securing awards, promotions and other acknowledgements of achievement It is human nature to be recognized from the hard-earned victories in work places. And this does not always need any devices in order to measure certain achievements. Whether it is big or small for as long as it gives impact to the organization it will always be a form of accomplishment. But how will you be able to attain outstanding results from your chosen craft? Simply, by giving all your best self and genuinely exert your efforts and focus on your goal. You have to set out your plans and manage your time in order to use your energy wisely and profitably. Your goal must be bigger than your desire of receiving such recognition.

The events aim to mobilize a mas sive voluntary action to support and complement the country’s cleanup and environmental green ing activities wherein garbage reduction, recycling, and com posting, and the rehabilitation of waterways will be institutionalized by various sectors of society.

Your attainments are the things you did which made a positive force and contribution to your selected profession. The exper tise and knowledge you’d need to perform your everyday work duties do not count. It often implies the completion of certain tasks assigned or given to you. The most powerful achievements are those which are perceptible, noticeable and quantifiable. Thus, it includes numbers or percentages to possibly gauge the outcomes. Achievements are components that enable someone to build and construct a sense of themselves as a success. The achievements that matter most coalesce to form an edition of achievement that has meaning and essence for the person. Success also provides concrete confirmation that colleagues, stakeholders, and the wider community use to critique a person as more or less success ful and evidently, doing well.

Diverse people find dissimilar evidence gripping, so it is no surprise that there was variance in the achievements that were seen to hold greatest weight for some teachers in our de partment. There are types of recognition that achievements could be transient, highly in dividual and evolve over time or in relative to some perspec tives. On the other hand, a clear prototype did surface. These patterns, which are outlined below, point to potential mis matches between the achieve ments that are conventionally viewed as indicators of success and the ones that others valued the most. Likely, they indicate areas that society might want to consider especially in the con text of a more sophisticated and gender-inclusive sense of what it means to be successful teach ers and how to do these three little known ways to achieve and become outstanding in our chosen field.

However, she claimed the projects from the Bangsamoro Government were not coordinated with the city government, bypassing her authority and going straight to the intended beneficiaries.“Itshould have been coordinated with the LGU. There are certain pro cesses, there are booklets to fill up. The problem is they only gave to those who they wanted to receive. There is no accountability, there is no signature or anything which is contrary to what we believe in the local government,” she said.BARMM officials claim to have coordinated with the LGU but the LGU allegedly did not send representatives to planning meetings, would not submit lists of priorities for infrastructure projects or simply would not answer letters.With Matabalao now at the helm, what they refer to as the “harang” mentality, is over.

Sayadi even wrote then President Rodrigo Duterte a position paper on February 7, 2020 to “hold in abey ance the turnover of Cotabato City to BARMM” as she appealed for a “status quo until such time that the three-year transition period has been completed and the BARMM bureaucracy would have been fully operational.”
