Successful individual portraits of the 21st century

The successful portrait we are looking for  

What is a successful individual in the 21st century? This question has certainly pondered a lot in the minds of fathers and mothers before the journey to search for methods of education and character formation for their children from a very young age.

So, what answer do we find? Is it an individual whose resounding successes take the first step of adulthood, then fall asleep in triumph? Are those people who accept their fate, the arrangement of society that is increasingly harsh and unpredictable? Or can we impose our own model of success as a development benchmark for the next generation. Of course, the answer lies beyond all these opinions.

To find the correct answer, first, let’s have an overview of where the current picture of humanity will take us in the future. The 21st century can be seen as a period where the pace of change is much faster than the previous centuries combined. At this point, we’ve seen the proliferation of AI. Artificial intelligence is gradually overwhelming a lot in people’s lives. This dominance will drastically change the employment system, the ing of society and even some of the most common standards.

Of course, no one can predict the future with certainty, but looking at what is happening in the present, we can say that a successful individual in the future needs to know how to adapt. fast – much faster than what parents have. That individual must know how to self-motivate and and continuously learn and create for himself his own separate path without being overwhelmed by any events in life.

Don’t think of this as a difficult challenge for future generations, but as an opportunity for children to achieve much greater success than their parents and grandparents. This is entirely possible if the children are provided by the parents and the school with the most effective tools and methods as a stepping stone to move forward.

which way to the victory?

The first answer is the building of core values – considered as the vertebrae, the first qualities to shape the portrait of successful individuals in the 21st century. At Sunshine School System Maple Bear, five core values built by the school include: Seft- Reliance (Tự Lực), Respect (Tôn Trọng), Ambition (Hoài bão, Empathy (Đồng cảm) và Brilliance (Tỏa sáng).

More specific:

Self-help is to encourage the spirit of independence and autonomy of each student.

Respect is to help students understand and respect the cultural properties, values, and personal views of others..

ambition is understanding what I want, what I need, know how to set goals, and consistently pursue goals.

From these core values, students will develop their own outstanding abilities: adapt, create and collaborate. These are the most effective tools for you to be resilient to all changes and events of the challenging 21st century.

It is no coincidence that the theme for the 2020-2021 school year of Sunshine Maple Bear School System is “Creating”.
