Back to school with Kim Collins

What better boost to self?esteem and inspiration can our students get as they head back to school, than to see the images of Kim Collins, Jason Rogers, Antoine Adams and Brijesh Lawrence on the podium during the award ceremony for the men's 4x100 meters relay at the IAAF World Championships in Daegu.
What more proof do our students need as they head back to school than to see these young men ?on top of the world?, that they, too, can achieve the ultimate if they are prepared to work for it.
Teachers must remind our children over and over again that their brains are whole and their minds are magical? that their brains can do anything they want them to do. They need only to find out ?how? or ?what it takes to get it done?. It is an instrument that is efficient and will function with whatever is being fed into it, this is what will form the student?s personality, and this is what shapes their attitudes.
Studies now show, that it is those persons uninvolved in any purposeful activity that easily become drawn into bad company. Those busy with extra-curricular activities and meaningful development of their talents, hardly fall prey to the desire to belong to something else.
They can also learn from Kim Collins that fame does not prevent one from developing a character that is as admirable as one?s physical achievements.
