If a child is struggling with reading, writing, and spelling, avoid the assumption that is because they are not trying hard enough.

If you are motivated by a wish to help on the basis of kindness, compassion and respect, then you can do any kind of work, in any field, and function more effectively with less fear or worry, not being afraid of what others think or whether you will ultimately reach your goal.

Everyone wants to live in a peaceful world, but it’s necessary to understand that what destroys peace is anger and hatred. This is why the long term goal is to create inner peace within individuals, so contributing to a more compassionate humanity.

Helping others brings deep satisfaction. No matter how powerful we may seem to be, our survival depends on the community. Clearly the community is crucial to individual happiness, so if we make others happy, we too derive benefit.

Peace in the world depends on peace within. If we have that we’ll approach problems in a spirit of dialogue, compassion and respect for the rights of others—always a better solution than resorting to a use of weapons and force. External disarmament depends on inner disarmament.

If children with dyslexia get in the habit of guessing at words, their reading accuracy and comprehension will decline as reading material gets more complex. We need to teach kids with dyslexia to properly decode and read words, not guess at them! #Dyslexia #ADHD #Dysgraphia
