Mathematics and Life 44 The results mindset

The results mindset 


It is a fact that across the globe, teachers are respected for their contribution in building nations, societies and individuals. I came to know that in some countries the teaching profession is so respected that anyone who has Teacher mentioned on the Passport is not even checked like others.


However, today we will discuss my idea of what we can do as teachers to get the respect which has tangible benefits too in terms of enhanced income, more privileges and followers too. And all happening professionally, as a part of working, in an organic way, without having to please anyone.


Today we will how to improve our results. The first term out of the acronym of Respect we discussed yesterday.


We can ourselves do it as well as train students to develop some processes to be more productive and get better results


  1. The touch and finish rule. Take a task and work on it to completion. Leaving it undone and reapproaching it later, requires more efforts again. I finish writing this blog from idea to posting in one go. Sometimes write till 7.59 am and post at 8 am 

  2. Write down your plan. It can be in the form of drawing, bulleted points too but note somewhere 

  3. Set small goals. Nothing kills productivity, makes you overwhelmed than being blindly ambitious. Same way, do not expect students, children, doing too many things perfectly and in the nick of time

  4. Plan ahead. This I have to learn and practice to avoid 7.59 syndrome

  5. Avoid over committing. Many people, specially ladies, find it difficult to refuse some task and keep piling up works. Some others take all orders coming and then dilute quality 

  6. Stop multitasking. You may listen to music that is background music, but working on 3 files open and working on all at the same time is not a very productive way of working. Take one matter, complete it, take another, complete it.

  7. Take the hardest task first. We are most energetic in the beginning and then gradually it reduces. Take that call you have been avoiding, mail you have to kill and do it first. It will relieve lot of stress and free you 

  8. Observe your most productive time of the day. I am in my Elements 4 am to 8 am, you decide your most favourite time of the day and do key tasks that time.

  9. Minimise interruptions. As such, the attention span has been reduced to less than few minutes. Put your phone on flight mode. I put on charging too and charges much faster in that mode. Family, if working from home,  should know it is your work. I know many good advertisement agencies where the creative team is not available to clients before lunch time.

  10. Set time limits. Think that you are going to publish a newspaper. If does not reach readers by 8 am, it was good only as trash. Looses its significance. Likewise, you too decide time limits. Like, I start to finish developing these posts in about 40 minutes or so.

I have restructured, putting my context, on the core thought presented by my favourite Brian Tracy

Mathematics and Life 23 Improving school mathematics 8

  Improving school mathematics 8 The role of parents 2 Mathematics is the science of recognising, understanding, appreciating, creating and using patterns in day to day life, business, sciences, work life, technology. In the last post we saw how parental influence becomes counterproductive and even limits a child's ability to perform. Now we will see what parents can do to boost a child's morale. Besides not doing unequal comparisons, expecting too much from the child, making public insults, the positive things parents can do are Give quality time to the child Encourage developing a study routine,, schedule in general Informally explain where education can take the child Accompany the child of school meetings  Besides these broad tips, using lot of love and common sense, parents can help the kid enjoy her studying maths. I also saw these videos which I guess will be very useful  9 tips to improve concentration https://youtu.be/LFIiW5BQP00 5 step formula  https://yout...

Mathematics and Life 95 Multiple Intelligences and mathematics education

  Multiple Intelligences and mathematics education Background Intelligence has been the factor on which the human race takes the highest pride and feels that it has Intelligence of the highest level. It is so because only human beings have all the five senses of sight, sound, smell, taste and touch fully developed. Moreover, only human being have the unique ability to express ideas, feelings in their own written or spoken words. In the beginning of the 20th century a lot of research was done on human intelligence. Their types, levels, measurements, enhancement. In the early 1980s, Dr. Howard Gardener gave his theory of multiple Intelligences.  Quoting successful cases of great musicians, players, business tycoons, religious leaders who never went school, he proposed that just relying on academic Intelligence is not the way to define Intelligence and gave eight traits of distinctly different types of intelligences. They are Linguistic Intelligence - what we measure in formal e...

Mathematics and Life 45 Experiential Learning

The role of experience In the behaviour school of psychology, who treat, observe, measure only the behavioural aspects, modification in behaviour is considered learning. For example, if you are training your dog to get the ball back, it does it, it has learnt what it means to get the ball back. Closer to us, if the teacher has just taught the concept of odd and even and now asks her 10 students to arrange themselves in odd number of rows and they make five rows with two students in each,they can be seen to have learnt the concept of odd and even. With more practice, it can be further consolidated. The mega companies like Jio, Amazon, Google, Facebook and others too have what is called experiential marketing as their backbone. Using, AI and applying big data, machine learning, techniques they study you and provide experiences you have been preferring to choose.  In this video, the high energy, very motivated friend of mine Dr. Sapna Agrawal takes us to the journey of providing exper...
