Four principles of self-encouragement!

Mr. Soeng Phalla

Thanks to Mr. Soeng Phalla, a gentle and friendly guy, who is a former stock associate at Room to Read Organization, a well-known and kind institution supporting the countries in the world by providing books and other study materials to students, where I took two-month internship there I learnt an ideal and wisdom idea from him. It is really true about the fact of each and every society in the world even though we have different systems of education like those countries of developing world have more best elites than those of under-developing. However, his idea resonates that although we have different systems of education, we still imply those ideas in our everyday life.

With a well-rounded attitude as a good leader for our team in stock department, Mr. Soeng Phalla shared us a four-systematical idea that I named it as "4 principles of self-encouragement". He mentioned that in our life there is nothing can be stronger and more powerful than us, so thinking out of the box is the best catalyst to help us stay encouraged. Explaining in a nice and simple way in warehouse of Room to Read, he told us that there are four factors that can help us motivate ourselves in a better way (1) genesis or clan, (2) family, (3) environment, and (4) self factor.

(1) genesis or clan factor: Most people value or believe that if someone was born to a noble or wise family, the child in those family would become a clever or wise man in the future even though we cannot see what and how our life in the future would be, yet it is still debatable.

(2) family factor: Linked from above factor, though we were born to a nice, wise, and rich family, but if there are a lot of problems happening in that family and members of family do not take care of one another and never give a warm contentment to each other, the child will not be motivated and will do something else out of track that cannot align with their future endeavor. Thus, all parents or parents-to-be should spend some times sharing their children ideas and advices.

(3) environment factor: As of the time we were born from a nice genesis or clay and our family takes care of us with full supports, provided that we are in a bad environment forcing us to do something illegal and harmful, the child would not be able to prohibit themselves not to do so due to their young age and teenage period; thus, the environmental factor is a huge and intangible influence, having a greater change to almost all people no matter how young or old they are.

(4) self factor: Listening carefully to all of those factors provided, I am really fascinated in this last idea as when I reflect it to the fact of my society and would probably others, I could see that most people who struggle in their life can succeed in almost all the tasks they do. Even though we were born to a poor situation, our family does not really care much about us, and we are in a bad environment, if we respect ourselves to be stronger in moving on in life not to fail in one of those three factors mentioned before, namely that, genesis, family, and environmental factor, we will be able to succeed  in everything not only our working or studying life, but also family life as we have self-belief.  

There is no man who can predict someone else's life's faith, yet man can really find out real power within himself and make use of it to be a strong encouragement factor to leverage life result.
