Commit to Quality

When you are committed to bringing out the best quality in your child, this commitment should not last for just days, weeks or months. The pursuit of quality emerges from a commitment to continuous improvement.


In the beginning of - and throughout - your child's education, your goal should be to help your child look for ways to improve. But without an informed understanding of your commitment to quality it is easy to begin to accept what was previously unacceptable. For example, you are so used to your child waking up without making his bed that you treated it as a norm and does not bother to tell him to do it. Think about it, is this acceptable? Do you want him to make his bed after he has woke up? Hence, you must have an informed understanding of your commitment to quality and what quality you want him to achieve. Building good quality begins with the most basic things of life, from brushing teeth to making of bed, etc. All these do not happen immediately, it takes time to develop.


A commitment to quality, then, like "quality control," ensures you are never settling for second best. Just as you desire quality from the products you buy, the people you are served by, and the performances you observe, your own commitment to quality will come from your desire to see your child's work defined by excellence.


Maybe you may find that it is difficult to achieve, don't give up. Keep trying. One day you will see result.

What is Quality?

I believe when you buy a sofa, or a handbag, or anything, you will definitely check the quality of the stuff before purchasing. Even when the item that you are going to purchase is on sale, you will still do quick check.
Do you do the same for your child?
Do you like this song: Que Sera Sera (Whatever will be, will be)

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, "What will I be?
Will I be pretty, will I be rich?"
Here's what she said to me

"Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be"

When I grew up, and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, "What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows, day after day?"
Here's what my sweetheart said

"Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be"

Now I have children of my own
They ask their father, "What will I be
Will I be handsome, will I be rich?"
I tell them tenderly

"Que Sera, Sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours, to see
Que Sera, Sera
What will be, will be"

Is this the quality that you expect for your child or from your child? Whatever will be, will be?
One of the keys to excellence that you may want to take note is: Quality
What is quality?
The Oxford Dictionary defined quality as "The standard of something as measured against other things of a similar kind; the degree of excellence of something."
Quality is respected, often expected, and primarily responsible for customer satisfaction, or the lack thereof.
In a nutshell, quality means doing more than was expected - above and beyond the call of duty.
What types of quality work your child will produce will depend on whether you seek for quality work from him when he is young. An early commitment to quality can have both immediate and future benefits for your child's development and later success in life.
If our children are going to grow into adults of quality who produce quality work, we can help them by cultivating that ability when they are young.
And school is one of the best training grounds in which to practise doing quality work.
