When I first started my Facebook page, Jarod Lee Notes, I had big dreams. I imagined a thriving community of followers who would eagerly wait for each post and who would like, comment, and share. I even changed the page name a few times—from *Jarod Lee* to *Jarod Lee Blog*, finally landing on Jarod Lee Notes. But after two years, it was clear something wasn’t working. Here’s the truth: I didn’t create enough content. I posted randomly, without a clear focus, thinking that a few good posts would bring in followers. But social media doesn’t work like that. The hardest lesson I learned? Growth requires consistency and focus. I should have picked one type of content and stuck with it. My audience was confused because one day I’d post a quote and the next a random article. If people don’t know what to expect, they lose interest. This experience taught me that social media success isn’t luck; it’s about building a connection and showing up regularly. I’m refocusing on my message, creating a

Six months ago, I jumped headfirst into a tough project, super excited to get started! The beginning involved figuring out different ideas and gathering important info from everyone involved. It was a whirlwind of learning, but by April, we had a clear plan for the project! Except, things got a bit tight deadline-wise. We had two super important goals to hit in a shorter time, and keeping everyone on the same page with the project (especially those who cared a lot about it!) added another layer of challenge. But here's the thing: I never gave up. Even though the project started off a bit tricky, sticking with it and talking things through clearly really helped. By April, we had a solid plan in place. The deadline got shorter, so we had to hustle to meet those two big goals. Keeping everyone informed during this intense time was another hurdle to jump. Fast forward to the end of May, and guess what? The first training class launched in a big way! A total win, if I do say so myself.

Let's face it, a few more grey hairs aren't what keeps me up at night. What truly troubles me is the gap between the reasons people give for staying stuck and the incredible potential for growth we all have. I recently met a dedicated and hardworking colleague who had achieved a lot in his career. He was working on a project, but he wasn't meeting deadlines, and one of his reasons was feeling overloaded and overwhelmed. The tasks seemed too difficult for him. This kept happening – for over 3 months! In actual fact, the task is basically one week of schedule planning!!!!! Based on my understanding of his industry, I trusted his abilities, but it was clear he was feeling stretched thin by all the other urgent and important tasks. Sometimes people say they're too busy or a task is too hard as reasons for not doing their best work. This can happen over and over again. Do you have the same experiences? Please share your story with me in the comment section below. The really

Would you thrive in a noisy, somewhat uncontrollable classroom, or do you prefer a quiet environment where students sit and listen to your teachings for 8 hours straight? 🤔  In a noisy classroom buzzing with discussion, there's often a lively exchange of ideas and active engagement among participants. This can be indicative of active learning, where students solidify their understanding by explaining concepts to their peers. Furthermore, the diverse perspectives shared in such discussions enrich the learning experience and foster critical thinking skills as students analyze information and evaluate arguments. On the other hand, in a quiet classroom, there may be a focus on concentration and individual work. However, this quietness could also indicate a lack of engagement or participation, leading to missed opportunities for peer-to-peer learning and collaboration. Students might feel hesitant to ask questions or seek clarification, resulting in a more passive learning experience.

I passed the Takaul Basic Exam! 🎓✨ This achievement holds deep significance for me, not merely as a validation of my knowledge (even though I only received a B 😅 ), but as a testament to the importance of continuous learning and professional growth. In my nearly two decades of experience, I've come to understand that remaining relevant in our fields demands a commitment to ongoing education. Lifelong learning isn't merely an option – it's a must (but most of them stop after school and only pick up very specific skills). Throughout my career journey, I've prioritized self-investment, whether through pursuing certifications, participating in workshops and conferences, or seeking mentorship opportunities (admittedly, this has become increasingly challenging). I'll be candid – it hasn't always been smooth sailing. There have been obstacles, setbacks, and moments of self-doubt. However, I've remained steadfast in my dedication to personal growth and development

The viewpoint of "hard work leads to success" emphasises the importance of effort, but it doesn't suggest that success can only be achieved through effort. Success usually requires a combination of multiple factors. Firstly, success is not solely determined by effort. Although effort is crucial, the definition of success varies from person to person, and the path to success is unique for each individual. Apart from effort, success also requires support from other factors such as talent, opportunity, environment, and interpersonal relationships. Sometimes, even if a person works very hard, they may not succeed if they lack these other factors. Secondly, putting one's heart into something is not just for success. It is an attitude, dedication and focus on what one is doing. Doing things with the intention not only improves efficiency and quality but also brings inner fulfilment and growth. Even if the desired success is not achieved, the experience and growth gained thr
