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 ako pē ʻaʻakú.

Ko ha taha koe; ʻokú ke maʻu ʻa e mālohi ke fili pē maʻau. Taimi lahi ʻoku tau faʻa fakahehema ke tatali ki he kau takimuʻá, kau faiakó, pe niʻihi kehé ke talamai ʻa e meʻa ke tau faí. ʻOku tau fiemaʻu ke nau ʻomi ha ngaahi fakahinohino sitepu-ki he-sitepu. ʻOku finangalo ʻa e ʻOtuá ke mahino kiate kitautolu ʻi heʻetau hoko ko ʻEne fānaú, ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa e mālohi ʻi loto ʻiate kitautolu ke fakahoko ʻa e ngaahi fili leleí pea laka ki muʻa.

ʻOkú Ne folofola “ʻoku totonu ke femoʻuekina [ʻEne fānaú] ʻi he holi lahi ʻi ha ngāue lelei, pea fai ʻa e ngaahi meʻa lahi ko ʻenau fili tauʻatāina ʻanautolu pē, pea fakahoko ʻa e māʻoniʻoni lahi; He ʻoku ʻiate kinautolu ʻa e mālohi, ʻa ia ʻoku nau hoko ai ko e niʻihi ke fili maʻanautolu. Pea kapau ʻe fai ʻe he tangatá ʻa e ngāue lelei, he ʻikai ke teitei mole ʻa ʻenau totongí” (Tokāteline & Ngaahi Fuakava 58:27–28).

ʻOku ʻiate koe ʻa e mālohí. Te ke lava ʻo fatongia ʻaki hoʻo akó. Kapau ʻoku puke ʻa e faiakó pea ʻikai lava ke ʻalu atu, te ke lava ʻo fili ke ako fakataha mo e kau ako kehé. Kapau ʻoku ʻikai ke mahino kiate koe ha meʻa, te ke lava ʻo kole ha tokoni. Kapau ʻokú ke fiemaʻu ha ngaahi fakakaukau ki he founga ke fakahoko lelei ange ai hoʻo akó, te ke lava ʻo ʻeke ki he kau ako kehe ʻi hoʻo kulupú ʻa e founga ʻoku ngāue lelei taha maʻanautolú. ʻOkú ke maʻu ʻa e mālohi ke fili mo ngāue.
