Dawn: A New Day A New Beginning!

Life brings many new journeys our way. It is not always easy to look at difficult choices in a positive way, but it does make them easier to deal with. Sometimes with a bit of attitude adjustment on our part, we can look at it as a chance for a new beginning, like the dawn of a new day.

We are in this journey here at IRSC together. Let us work together to get the most out of it that we can. This is not only a new year, but 2010 is also a new decade. Let us make the best of it, together!

I am sure you have noted that this is no longer 2010!  In fact, we are almost half way through 2013! 

It does not matter the date or the year, as a new beginning can happen at any time in your life. You have to be open and aware of all that is happening around you so when that special opportunity comes your way, you are ready to reach out and go with it!
 

Affirmative Quotes

There are times that certain quotes or sayings touch us... inspire us to do more. We will be posting different quotes on the board outside Mrs. Gorham's office. Check them out. Perhaps one of them will 'speak' to you. Here is a quote by a well known children's author, Shel Silverstein.

Listen to the mustn'ts, child,

listen to the don'ts

listen to the shouldn'ts,

the impossibles, the won'ts

listen to the never haves

then listen close to me--

anything can happen, child,

ANYTHING can be.

So often when we think of the negative things that have happened in our lives or that people have told us, we are held back by it. If that is the case, remember the last lines of the quote above:

anything can happen. child,

ANYTHING can be.

Emerging...

Sometimes, our learning process seems mired in a fog of not understanding or else it appears to be at a standstill. Don't Worry! Just continue to move forward with your lessons. Please, do not be afraid to ask questions! "The only dumb question is the one you do not ask!"

Yes, I know, keyboarding is not the most exciting program. Lessons you seem to do over and over. What you may not realize, is that a different combinations of letters are being used in each lesson. This aids you in becoming familiar with the variety of reaches your fingers have to make for each word. Numbers will always seem to slow you down!

Just think of what will happen when it all comes together! That finished document, with footnotes, a title page, correctly formated page numbers and a reference page! Not thrilled by this? Well, your employers will be, when they see how you can put it all together.

Your work will emerge out of the fog and into a whole different perspective!
