Importance of Gratitude for Education
Reflect on this quote for a moment ...
“ …..
gratefulness to our teachers helps us learn better. So we benefit
from our thankfulness for the lessons delivered to us, because
thankfulness for both the digestible and difficult lessons helps us
imbibe the knowledge more easily. It also changes us for the better.”
