Study the Principle of Learning: Take Responsibility

Fatongia ʻAki

I have the power to choose, and I am responsible for my own learning.

ʻOku ou maʻu ʻa e mālohi ke filí, pea ʻoku ou fatongia ʻaki ʻeku akó.

Ko ha fānau koe ʻa e ʻOtuá pea ʻokú ke maʻu ʻa e mālohi ke fili pea mo ngāue pē maʻau. ʻOku ui ʻa e mālohi ko ʻeni ko e tauʻatāina ke filí. ʻOku akoʻi mai ʻe Līhai, ko ha palōfita ʻi he Tohi ʻa Molomoná, ʻoku ʻikai ke tau hangē ko e maká, ʻo tatali pē ke toki liliu mo ʻunuki kitautolu ʻe ha taha. Ko ha kau fakafofonga kitautolu ʻoku tau lava ʻo fili pē maʻatautolu ʻa e meʻa ʻoku tau tui ki aí, meʻa ʻoku tau faí, mo e tuʻunga te tau aʻusiá. Naʻe akonaki ʻa Līhai ʻo pehē:

“[Kuo] fakatupu [ʻe he ʻOtuá] ‘a e ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, … ʻa e ngaahi meʻa ke ngāue [mo] ngāueʻí fakatouʻosi.” Ko ia, naʻe tuku ʻe he ʻEiki ko e ʻOtuá ki he tangatá ke ne fili maʻana” (2 Nīfai 2:14, 16).

Te ke lava ʻo fili ke ako pea mo fakalakalaka. ʻE lava ke tokoniʻi koe hoʻo faiakó mo hoʻo kaungā ako kehe ʻi hoʻomou kulupu fepōtalanoaʻakí, ka ko e aofangatukú, ko hoʻo ngaahi filí pē te ne tokoniʻi lahi taha hoʻo akó. Te ke lava ʻo fili ʻiate koe pē ke ke ako ʻa e lea faka-Pilitāniá ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē. Ko e taimi ʻe hoko ai ha palopalemá, kumi ha ngaahi founga ke fakaleleiʻi ʻaki. Kuo foaki atu kiate koe ʻa e tauʻatāina ke filí—ʻa e mālohi mei he ʻOtuá ke ngāué. Te ke lava ʻo fatongia ʻaki hoʻo akó.
