Once upon a time, there was a young girl named Beauty. She was beautiful just as her name implies, she was also a bright and curious student that always had lots of questions in class. Her teachers often applauded her because of her enthusiasm and eagerness to learn.
One day, Beauty's English teacher asked her class to write an essay. She spent hours writing hers and this made her feel proud of her effort, she felt like she was on top of the world while walking to the staff room for submission. When she received her essay back from the teacher, she was disappointed to see that she had received a C.
Beauty was confused and frustrated. She thought she had done a good job and couldn't understand why she hadn't received a better grade. She assumed that her teacher didn't appreciate her hard work and dedication.
Feeling discouraged, Beauty went home and told her parents about her grade. Her parents were surprised and asked to see the essay. After reading it, they realized that Beauty did not understand the essay question and had not followed the instructions accordingly.
Her parents explained to her what she had done wrong and encouraged her to ask her teacher for feedback so that she could improve her writing skills. They also reminded her that assumptions can be dangerous and that it's important to communicate and ask for clarification when things aren't clear.
Beauty took her parents' advice and talked to her teacher about her essay. Her teacher was happy to give her feedback and explained where she could improve. Beauty took the feedback to heart and worked hard to improve her writing skills.
Over time, she became a better writer and her grades improved. She realized that feedback was a valuable tool for growth and that assumptions could lead to misunderstandings and missed opportunities.
As Beauty grew up, she carried this lesson with her into her personal and professional life. She learned that giving and receiving feedback was essential for growth and success. She also learned that assumptions can be dangerous and that it's important to communicate and ask for clarification when things aren't clear.
Moral Lesson: Feedback is a powerful tool for growth and development. It's important to seek feedback from others and to give feedback when it's needed. Assumptions can lead to miscommunication and one can miss opportunities as a result. Therefore, it is important to communicate and ask for clarification when things are not clear. Always remember that feedback is not a criticism, it is rather an opportunity to improve and learn.
