A question that most yoga teachers are asked: “do you want to open a yoga studio in the future?” This question is related to such questions as: “when are you going to get married after playing with friends for so long?” “Haven’t you had children after five years of marriage?” “The three child policy has come out.
When do you want a second child?” “After working in this position for so long, haven’t you been promoted yet?” Wait a minute.
In my opinion, there is no difference in essence, all due to the limitations of cognition of a certain situation.
Today, let’s talk about the topic of opening the yoga teacher’s nexestep.
Is it the owner But I want to start with a “dispute” a few days ago.
01.
An inconclusive family dispute.
A few days ago, my husband and I chatted in the car.
I talked about the last two moments I don’t recognize: one is that every time he goes out, he says to his child, “listen to his mother / grandpa at home!” Another is to take the children to the party, and ask her to say hello to the adults “call uncle and aunt”.
(in fact, every time she stands in the middle of a group of people, she looks very embarrassed) I don’t think it’s necessary to let the children “follow the rules” too much.
You can relax; He objected, saying that “this is politeness”, which is a kind of education.
If we delve into this parenting problem, we will find that we can’t convince each other at all.
Family background, education methods and growth experience are completely different.
University major, one is art department, the other is journalism department.
Career, a new media, a traditional media.
My husband said that I “sometimes just don’t have enough education”, and I think he is a “mechanical screw”.
My top-down approach to education is: most rules are used to break.
My husband’s way of education is: rules are used to abide by.
(he is also a very responsible father and has participated in a lot of childcare) this has led to the emergence of two extreme positions.
In the end, we did not discuss the results satisfactory to both sides, but only strive to find a balance in the future.
Why should I talk about this seemingly unrelated parenting incident? Because I think of many people from the conflict of educational ideas.
They follow a “straight line” rule.
This rule requires people to drive on a given route like a train.
You can’t derail or turn.
The scenery outside the window is fixed and the direction is fixed.
These days, I was reading a book recommended by my friend – “breaking King Kong”, which said a point.
I raised my hands and feet to agree: never let untested assumptions and prejudices in your national culture dominate your career and life.
For example, how many people once thought that playing games was not serious.
Now they can play games to the extreme and become E-sports players to join the national team and win glory for the country.
The so-called creeds and rules were originally made artificially.
What you abide by is just the current rules of the game.
The good, bad, right, wrong, success and failure defined in your culture will change with the changes of the times, even in your lifetime.
You can’t blindly believe in the “cultural creed” that grew up with you – whether it’s taught to you by your primary school teachers, your parents, or people you meet in churches or temples.
You can’t blindly accept what is widely spread and legal, or what the small world you call “home” believes.
You can’t follow blindly just because others are following a certain business method.
In a word, the pattern opens.
02.
Educators and businessmen in the book of Yu Minhong, founder of New Oriental, he wrote several moments that made him collapse on the road of Entrepreneurship: being punished by Peking University, the only mathematics teacher hired running halfway, the right and wrong of introducing investors, starting a business with old friends, and finally parted ways Including “in 2021, the market value of New Oriental fell by 90%, 60000 employees were dismissed, and nearly 20 billion yuan of cash expenses such as tuition, employee dismissal compensation and teaching point rent were paid out”, which has not been written in the book yet.
Did you say he collapsed? I believe he really collapsed in countless moments.
He is an educator and used to be a teacher of Peking University.
When an educator becomes a businessman, there will be contradictions and conflicts.
For example, he said: “education is a process of moving forward steadily and step by step, constantly polishing the product system, constantly training talents and constantly improving the level of teachers.
It will form a very big contradiction with the eagerness for quick success and instant benefit of the capital market.” When he interviewed Liu Yonghao, President of new hope group, he heard that the other party rarely gets sick all year round.
When he slept well every day, he flashed a trace of envy and said: I took more than 3000 sleeping pills for 15 years.
This is an unacceptable fact.
It’s hard to stand high, but I can’t sleep well for 15 years.
I have done “career planning” services for many yoga practitioners in order to help them quickly find the sweet spot of their career and maximize their energy and talents.
The process is very interesting.
When I asked about my future plans, she / he would finally turn to the same career plan: it should be to open a yoga studio! “Opening a yoga studio” sounds like the most ideal, scientific and reliable way.
Having children, promotion and salary increase is a reasonable assumption, but its limitations are here.
Who told you that this is your future? 03.
For whom do flowers bloom? Back to parenting.
When my daughter first entered the preschool class (connection between childhood and childhood), the class asked the children to learn rope skipping and report the number of rope skipping in one minute in the group every day.
Gradually, she became the last in the class.
Because she couldn’t even jump, she would stop every time, so she could only jump about 60..
