- Ha valaki látta a filmet, itt két fogalmazást kellett a fiúnak írni, mindez a SPORT célja elérését szolgálja, a kitartást és az elszántságot erősíti, mikor már letenne vágyairól.... A film címe magyarul: Ahol a hullámok születnek.
Lehetne más is: Ahol és amikor én megszülettem... :-)
"A fiatalon elhunyt amerikai szörflegendának állít emléket az életrajzi ihletésű Mavericks – Ahol a hullámok születnek című film. A sportfilmes toposzokban bővelkedő opusban az ifjú "padavan" hogy betörje a hegy-magas hullámokat, a helyi mestertől vesz leckéket. A szörfözésről is, az életről is."
A témáról magyarul is, lejjebb...
Why do you do what you do? What is the engine that keeps you up
late at night or gets you going in the morning? Where is your happy
place? What stands between you and your ultimate dream?
Heavy questions. One researcher believes that writing down the answers can be decisive for students.
He co-authored
a paper that
demonstrates a startling effect: nearly erasing the gender and ethnic
minority achievement gap for 700 students over the course of two years
with a short written exercise in setting goals.
Jordan
Peterson teaches in the department of psychology at the University of
Toronto. For decades, he has been fascinated by the effects of writing
on organizing thoughts and emotions.
Experiments going back to
the 1980s have shown that "therapeutic" or "expressive" writing can
reduce depression, increase productivity and even cut down on visits to
the doctor.
"The act of writing is more powerful than people think," Peterson says.
Most
people grapple at some time or another with free-floating anxiety that
saps energy and increases stress. Through written reflection, you may
realize that a certain unpleasant feeling ties back to, say, a difficult
interaction with your mother. That type of insight, research has shown,
can help locate, ground and ultimately resolve the emotion and the
associated stress.
At the same time, "goal-setting theory"
holds that writing down concrete, specific goals and strategies can help
people overcome obstacles and achieve.
'It Turned My Life Around'
Recently, researchers have been getting
more and more interested
in the role that mental motivation plays in academic achievement —
sometimes conceptualized as "grit" or "growth mindset" or "executive
functioning."
Peterson wondered whether writing could be shown to affect student motivation. He created an undergraduate course called
Maps of Meaning. In it, students complete a set of writing exercises that combine expressive writing with goal-setting.
