is the word I’m currently in
love with.
Alhamdulillah we (IISM Primary
& Secondary teachers) had a very inspiring session during our INSET (In
Service Educational Training) last Monday with Emeritus Professor Dato’ Dr.
Omar A. Rahman.
MashaAllah, I already 'know' him
while attending ESQ Parenting course two years ago, and this year I get to meet
him in person.
His stories are inspiring and
make me feel closer to Allah, Subhanallah.
Some inspirational quotes /
notes summarize from the session:
- ·
Power is the ability to take action, to make it happen and to put things
into motion
- ·
Desire and support system are the elements needed for positive
empowerment
- ·
Happiness is a choice, open your heart and give to the fullest
- ·
Life is journey of imperfect actions
- ·
Empowered workforce: many voices, but ONE heart and ONE will
- ·
The power of ‘WHY’ ~ explain in
order to change
- ·
Attitude of gratitude ~ how we say thank you to Allah? The best person among you is the one who
give the most benefit
- ·
Teachers ~ build human resource,
characters, create impact, create or spark transformation.
- ·
To fall down is okay, but to stay fall is not okay
- ·
Should you fall, fall forward ~ Should you fail, fail successfully
One simple (yet meaningful) poem shared by
him at the end of the session:
Positive Mental Attitude
A little bird flies in the sky,
A man look up, the bird shits on
his eye,
He said ‘Thank God, cow doesn’t
fly’
Thank you Allah for your blessings and ni'mah.
May Allah bless Dr. Omar and his
family.
