E.D.U.C.A.T.E. yourself!

On November 2015, the form five students were taking Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM). During the SPM's examination, suddenly Malaysia was shocked over death of SPM student. The student of SMK Raja Abdullah, Hon Ye was so depressed to wanting to take his own life. Even though he was hardworking and intelligent student but he can't manage his time. This is because, he studied late into the night and use his time only for study.
Thus, this is the ways on how to EDUCATE yourself. The first 'E' stands for 'Excellence': we all want excellence in everything. However, doing excellently in our school work is definitely not possible without studying. Studying is a key ingredient to achieving this excellence.
Besides, studying requires 'Discipline' on our part. With many subjects to cover, a timetable is essential. This discipline helps us when we start working, especially when a deadline has to be met, a project to be organised or a budget to be adhered to. More importantly, we have to be responsible for our own learning, especially if a particular subject is tough. Self-motivated learning and studying, is more effective than learning for examinations.
With this attitude, we students should realise that we need to develop a deeper 'Understanding' of the world around us and that studying must go beyond passively learning facts. As we think more about what we learn, we become more aware of our natural world, and understand how and why political differences exist. As we mature in our study habits, we might even see how the past affects the present.
Naturally, 'Careers' and stressed how studying is necessary for our future careers. If we are successful in our studies, we are eligible for more challenging jobs.
Moreover, we can ensure ourselves excellent academic results through regular study. Our 'Ambitions' of being high-fliers in our working life can be fulfilled if we are well-qualified, as it is obvious that very few companies will employ a poorly-educated person.
In addition, discipline study is actually 'Training' the mind to think, analyse and make valid conclusions. This is another aspect of being independent and growing up, which is necessary to cope with the challenges of working life.
The final letter of acronym stands for 'Enthusiasm'. The students agree whole-heartedly that we remember more when we are passionate about the subject matter. As such, enthusiasm is an important ingredient in true education.
In conclusion, to do the best in our examinations, we should continue learning all the time, as 'Education is not a destination but a lifelong journey'.
