Grade 9: 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens

On April 15^th, Samuel Yang, the CEO of Kingdom Education, gave an insightful speech on his interpretation of a popular motivational book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens. He drew stories from his personal life to link with the habits. The audience laughed at his humorous use of words but simultaneously learned the greater meanings behind the stories.

When talking about the habits, he chose to start with the complete opposite of the habits. For example, as the first habit was about being proactive, he talked about reactive teenagers in contrast to his point. Many students nodded agreeably, realizing that they have the bad habit of being reactive and eagerly listening to how to become proactive.

Students walked out of the lecture fruitfully and satisfyingly. Hopefully, they will start to develop the 7 habits that were presented.
