In education, we should stop the one - size - fits - all approach. Teachers should identify the individual strengths and weaknesses of students. Similar to how animals have different natural abilities, students may be good at art, science, or sports. By focusing on their individual talents, we can help students develop better and be more confident in their abilities.
In a work environment, we can apply it by building teams based on diverse skills. Just like in the animal school, if we put together people with different strengths, we can achieve more. For instance, a creative person, a detail - oriented person, and a people - person can form a great team, each contributing their unique qualities.
We can apply the moral of not being overconfident by being more realistic about our abilities. For example, in a job interview, we shouldn't over - promise what we can do. Just like the gingerbread man thought he could outrun everyone but couldn't, we should know our limits.
In terms of following your heart, we can take risks and pursue our passions in real life. Just like Ariel, if we have a strong desire to do something different from the norm, like changing careers or moving to a new place, we should consider following that inner voice. But also be aware of the potential sacrifices and difficulties, just as Ariel faced many challenges in her pursuit of the human world.
We can start by being more aware of the needs of others around us. Just like in stories with a 'doing good' moral, if we see someone in trouble, we can offer help. For instance, if an elderly person is struggling to carry groceries, we can assist them.
We can apply it by seeing each day as a chance to start anew. Just like Phil in the movie, we should not be stuck in our old habits. If we had a bad day yesterday, today can be different. We can be more positive, more helpful to others.
To bring the hope aspect of the Christmas story into modern life, we can be more positive in difficult situations. Just as the Christmas story gives hope, we can look for the silver lining in tough times. For instance, if someone loses their job, they can see it as an opportunity to find a better one.
In daily life, we should be like the wiser animals who finally realized the truth. When we hear some news or rumors, we should verify them first. Just as Chicken Little spread false panic, we should avoid being the ones to spread unconfirmed information. For instance, on social media, don't share something just because it sounds alarming without checking its authenticity.
We can apply it by not getting too worked up over small mistakes or annoyances. For example, if we spill coffee on our shirt in the morning, instead of ruining our day over that one small 'black dot' incident, we just move on and focus on the good things like the nice weather or meeting a friend later.
Regarding loyalty, in modern relationships, whether it be in a family, friendship or at work, we should be loyal to the people we care about and the values we share. We can also be loyal to our own beliefs and principles, like the knights were to Arthur's ideals.
We can apply it by using wisdom in our decision - making. Just like Solomon, when we face difficult choices, we should think rationally and not be hasty. For example, in a business deal, we should analyze all aspects carefully to make a fair and beneficial decision for all parties involved.
We can apply it by being more observant. For example, when we see a new product advertised in a very appealing way, we should look deeper into its features and reviews, just like we should look beyond the initial appearance of the snake.
