If a person wants to be a better self, bravery quotient is as important as emotional intelligence and IQ, which determines a person's verve, mind and vision, especially in this challenging era.
What about me? I am timid and cautious when I study, introverted and conservative, and I often blush when I speak in public. He is a tiger, but he is a paper tiger. I know this personality is not suitable for being a teacher. After taking part in the work, I tried to change and adjust, and slowly, I also came up with some experience.

Strong tip: What's so terrible about making a fool of yourself? Stopping progress is the most terrible thing.
Every year, our school recommends many teachers to participate in lectures, lectures and other on-site teaching competitions at all levels. Some teachers are active in teaching and research activities at school and have good personal qualities, but once they choose her to compete, they will find out all kinds of reasons and refuse the kindness of the school.
I know that such a teacher is by no means a lazy and negative generation, but can't overcome his own psychological obstacles. Like me, I have no confidence in myself and am afraid of making a fool of myself.
Find out their psychology. When I talk to them, I will help them solve problems: "First, you dare to go out and talk, no matter how many prizes you win, you are good;" Second, during the competition, our leader is not listening, and others are people you are not familiar with. Why are you afraid of them? Third, even if you screw up, you are the biggest beneficiary, and the experience you gained from it will never be forgotten. "
With such a suggestion, they all took part in the competition without exception.
How can a knife become sharp if it is not sharpened? How can you see the light when the sword is not bright? What if we screw up? The sky will not fall again, which only makes the teachers feel a little sorry. Perhaps they can also feel superior psychologically and feel that they should speak better than the teachers on the stage. Isn't it a gain to make others proud?
It is with this growing mentality that I have worked for 28 years and rarely refuse every activity arranged by the leaders. There should be at least 100 speech contest, knowledge contest, speech contest, lecture and performance. Because of the average ability, embarrassing things emerge one after another. But I have always given myself a strong hint: what is terrible about making a fool of yourself? Stopping progress is the most terrible thing.

Tell a big story first, and then prove it with strength.
There is a saying that I don't know who said it: Now you are working hard for the blown cow.
Don't underestimate the rhetoric, it is your courage, and it may also be your persistent motivation.
2065438+On July 20th, 2005, nine teachers and I went to Mianyang Experimental Primary School in Sichuan to attend the first national education hiking summer camp. After I went, I was attracted by the training method of educational walking, which was pure public welfare, pure voluntariness and pure friendship. Teachers' enthusiasm for learning is high, and the content is brilliant. I saw real autonomy, freedom and introspection. ?
At that time, I tried my best to compete with five or six famous principals in the country for the right to host the second session. You know, I was only the principal for 22 days at that time!
Mr. Zhang Wenzhi, the founder of Education Walk, asked me: Do you have any advantages? I said forcefully: there is not much martial arts, but there is a big pattern in small places; The attached primary school is not big, but the primary education is big; The stage is not big, but small ideas have big dreams, and the attached elementary school will definitely let you see a brand-new educational style.
They were attracted by my campaign words, used to eating "big fish and big meat" and wanted some "cold dishes". In this way, the second educational walk is scheduled to be held in Wuxue on July 20 -24, 20 16.
This activity was a great success. The organizing committee screened the training programs from the teachers' training needs, and showed different primary schools and participants by means of cross talk lessons, happy reports, general mobilization and lectures. All links are planned, organized and presided over by front-line teachers, so that everyone can shine on stage and off stage.
The third education walk was held in Cai Ying School in Xiamen, the fourth in Guanghua School in Ningbo, the fifth in Suzhou University Experimental School, and the sixth was not held due to the epidemic situation. It is planned to be held in Shanghai Pinghe Bilingual School this year. In other words, the primary school affiliated to our school is the only county-level primary school that undertakes educational hiking summer camp activities, and the others are famous schools at or above the prefecture level. However, in everyone's evaluation, we are not inferior, thinking that the attached primary school held a grass-roots education walking activity closest to the teacher's reality.
I have the courage to go forward, which is the confidence that the former president gave me. Under her wise management, the affiliated primary school has profound cultural background and reform genes, as well as teachers and students with strong cohesion and learning ability. However, at that time, I was "confused" about how to show them a brand-new educational style.
After I came back, I began to think: What is the difference between primary school and middle school? What kind of school do both teachers and students want? Where can the affiliated primary school go? So, I spent a year combing the theory and practice mode of "expanding latent education", which gave me my own school-running ideas and deeply influenced my management actions.
Many times, our bold statement is to break the back road of "being content with mediocrity and not seeking progress" and give ourselves the courage to challenge and surpass ourselves.

Quietly prepare, suddenly shine
When you are quietly prepared enough, it is often easier to get positive feedback from people around you, which is an important measure to improve your courage quotient.
2065438+June 2007, as a provincial party representative, I attended the 11th provincial party congress. On the afternoon of June 25th, the secretary of the provincial party committee went to the conference hall of Huanggang delegation to listen to everyone's report. At that time, the meeting had arranged for three representatives to speak. After they finished speaking, Liu Xuerong, secretary of Huanggang Municipal Party Committee, said, "Who else wants to talk?" I quickly raised my right hand and said loudly, "I want to say it!" " "
After receiving the microphone, I made the following opening remarks: I am Tu, the headmaster of Wuxue Normal Primary School, and the children are glad to know that the headmaster will attend the party congress. I wonder if I can show you some works?
With the permission of the leader, I took out a long-prepared calligraphy work to introduce to you: This is "I am a sunflower, I have a Chinese dream" written by our classmate Fan Xicheng, which represents the children's determination to serve the party and the country with great ambition.
When the delegates saw Fan Xicheng's exquisite calligraphy, they applauded warmly and praised it again and again: It's amazing that a ten-year-old child can write such good words!
Then, in my speech, I focused on the beneficial exploration made by Wuxue City in the balanced development of compulsory education. In 20 15, Wuxue City became one of the first demonstration reform areas of compulsory education counties in China, and made great progress in education equity. For example, the elementary school attached to it has now formed a teacher exchange pattern of one school, three districts and five N points. Through the one-school system, the joint school system and the assistance system, a number of rural schools have embarked on the fast track of healthy development.
During the party congress, Hubei Daily and Hubei TV station interviewed me one after another to learn more about the exchange mode of teachers in Wuxue education and reported it many times. After returning to school, I also conveyed the words of encouragement from the delegates to the teachers and students, and everyone was encouraged. Fan Xicheng is particularly proud. After that, he practiced calligraphy harder and won the first prize in the national calligraphy competition.
A party representative asked me, "Aren't you afraid that all the big leaders are coming?" I smiled and said, "The leadership is so close to the people. What am I afraid of? "
however
How dare you say "I'll do it" loudly without thinking about the content of the speech in advance?
Without careful preparation, how can we give children's works "meaning"?
If there is no exchange of educational reform and innovation practice, how can there be a high degree of "concern" from everyone?
Indeed, success belongs to those who are prepared. It gives us the courage to improvise and gives us a wonderful display of self-confidence.
Courage quotient Not everyone has courage, not foolhardy. Courage quotient is a kind of mind, which can despise success or failure; Courage quotient is a kind of responsibility and can be responsible for the cause; Courage quotient is a kind of knowledge, which can grasp the overall situation. It can be said that bravery quotient is a comprehensive expression of boldness of vision, knowledge and ability.
Now, I understand more and more:
Those who dare to face adversity and seek breakthroughs have high courage and high quotient.
People who dare to face pressure and can turn pressure into motivation have high courage and quotient.
People who dare to face changes and are good at finding opportunities from changes are courageous and have a business mind.
When you are afraid, when you are afraid, ask yourself what you really want, and then be bold. Everyone can only live once anyway.
May you go forward and say, "I can do it!" " "
