Six Ways the Arts Help Prepare Kids to Succeed in Life - 3 views

  •  
    This article is very thouugh provoking. I always knew that the arts would help me but this article really opened my eyes to how much the arts will aid me in my life. The arts do way more for you than just making you think more creatively. This article also taught me about how the arts help with handling stress! Very intersting read.

  • A student asked his Zen master how long it would take to reach enlightenment.  “Ten years,” the master said.  But, the student persisted, what if he studied very hard?  “Then 20 years,” the master responded.  Surprised, the student asked how long it would take if he worked very, very hard and became the most dedicated student in the Ashram.  “In that case, 30 years,” the master replied.  His explanation:  “If you have one eye on how close you are to achieving your goal, that leaves only one eye for your task.”
  • Thus, students can be invited to participate in that process either as a negotiation (such that the teacher has the final say) or by simply permitting students to grade themselves
