Greetings everyone-
Remember how Murphy helped 'sinking' Bobby drastically improve his performance in school?
Bobby was constantly late, disruptive in class and rarely did his homework. Frustrated, his teachers sent him to Murphy, the school counselor. Murphy didn't adopt the usual 'archaeology' method, digging into the roots his misery. Bobby's background unfortunately messy and fixing it was in Murphy’s control. Instead, Murphy looked for Bobby's 'bright spots'. Bobby did relatively well at Math. Bobby said that he liked his Math teacher. Murphy decoded 3 things the Math teacher did differently:
- She greeted Bobby at the door (so Bobby felt welcome),
- She gave him assistance with homework (Bobby felt specially supported), and
- She always made sure Bobby understood the instructions (since Bobby has a learning disability).
Murphy recommended these 3 simple things all Bobby's teachers. In three months, Bobby's performance improved by a whooping 80%!
This week, let's look for simple, small solutions when facing a daunting problem.
Have an excellent week!
Sincerely,
Your friends at Credo
