"What choice do I have?" Is often the frustrated rhetorical question we dread hearing or saying. The phrase conjures up either a condemning or sympathetic response to the conflicts and helpless situations humans find themselves in. Financial distress, closed doors for education, employment, even clubs or societies that could make a difference in life quality or future opportunities.

Don't confuse your destiny with your eventual career or what you will do to make a living!!!

Your purpose is designed by God and He had this purpose before he designed you to fulfill it. Your purpose is brought out on purpose it will not happen accidentally. All of your skills need to serve your higher purpose in life and equip you to worship and serve God's intentions or design for your life with all your heart, mind and soul. 

Keeping options open in order to limit the possibility of being forced into a situation where you are out of choices begins very early in life. Some would even argue that the very family situation you are born into assigns your range or potential for success or failure.

It is impossible to say how learning to play a musical instrument will benefit a child's future. Especially one who has little or no aptitude for music. We can point out potential future events where this knowledge changes their choices and opens up possibilities that would other wise be closed. Knowledge, even limited knowledge, in our weaknesses compliment our strengths and callings. The future business professional may find employment in the music industry due to their ability to appreciate talent and converse in a knowledgeable manner. Future teachers or counselors can research and educate others about the impact music has on the mind. Finally, those who never find their career paths crossing the music industry could very well find themselves raising a child protégée or simply appreciating a concert while enjoying the company of people they would not otherwise find themselves socializing with.    

Whether the curriculum includes instruction in the fine arts, advanced math or special science courses, is only part of the equation. Could the current model for educational curriculum provide not only variety, but personalized depth. Destiny Based Education coursework balances itself in a way that all students are exposed to an elevated minimum in broader subject areas while allowing students to choose electives of interests for depth in each subject. Students as young as 12 are

Individuality

Flexibility in time, ability

Focus

 

Your destiny only serves a purpose on the  journey to your destination.

It's all about the journey....Goals for the journey

1. Live in the now.- DBE is not based on finishing first or the most worksheets or assignments.

2. Know yourself- Know what your gifts talents and interests are and know what you are not good at. Understand how this guides and limits your journey The curriculum addresses this ideal in two ways. The core required classes that give students that little "taste" of everything before elective choices are made and individualized ability level assigned curriculum.

3. Enjoy the work of your hands Find joy in the doing that comes in between the joy of achievement or the sense of accomplishment. DBE curriculum requires regular participation and that participation is rewarded.

4. Learn to learn and teach yourself- your personal who what when where why and how's for learning.

5. The influence or absence of one person-Will your impact be limited because your educators didn't  equip for your individual needs and destiny in mind? One person can make all the difference. Lead your own life don't fear following your own drum and don't fear leading others who are lost.

6.Learn from others experience. History ahs a way of repeating itself save yourself the experience of reinventing the wheel.
