Giving tips to the students that they need to remember and never forget, he said – Giving is receiving, the purpose of education is to replace an empty mind with an open mind.

Words that are going to help you are sincerity, ownership, honesty, choice and attitude, he said. Quoting the Pygmalion effect, he said, “Higher expectation leads to increased performance. Everyone can learn more than what they are learning.”
