Yesterday, a student asked me a question: " How to score Grade" A " in the school subject- History. I told him the following: You need to memorize all the facts and figures [ year and date ], it is best to really understand it rather than just memorize it. He again asked me the other question: " What is the use of studying History? I then gave him the typical answer. I told him: " learn from the past experiences and do not repeat the same mistakes again. "
My friend, do you like to study History? Do you also want to score Grade "A " in History, then you have to study hard, no short cut for that.
Now, I have a suggestion for you and more likely you can score " A ". Now, you might me wondering what is that?
Listen carefully, You can study your own History . If you are 33 years old, you have 33 years of history.
My friend, the only person that he knows your history is you. Now you set your questions and answer yourself, you are the examiner also.
I believe you can score well, am I right? Do you learn from your past experiences?

You say:" hated history throughout my life."
My friend, you need not hate history, turn history into your own advantage, learn from your own history and create new history for yourself,have a great life.
coolingstar,
i disliked history subject when i was in secondary school. i hate remembering dates and agreement that has been made ages ago.
when i grow older, i start to like history to learn about new politic and understand about it from its root.
government and school should make history more interesting than the basic methods that they have been used for ages. what about visiting historical places in malaysia?
Faisal Admar,
Students dislike history subject because they need to remember dates and agreement that has been made ages ago. You were one of them during your school day.
Now,when you grow older, you start to like history to learn about new politic and understand about it from its root.
It is ready good to make history an interesting subjects, may be school can organize tour on historical places. Perhaps they can have interesting discussion on some events in history.
Why human always repeat the same old mistakes again and again like war,etc. Is it human never learn from past experiences or because human has too ignorant, greedy or...
This is the right time to ponder about---
Faisal Admar, You are the fourth winner to receive the blogger award, have a nice day.
Dear coolingstar,
I like those history book of some people(such as The Second Coming Of Steve Jobs),history of modern management（such as Ten Founding Fathers Of American Business), history of a country(such as The Glory and the Dream), Yeah, I love these kinds of history books very very much.
And I agree that we can study our own History.Sometime maybe we need slow down, think over carefully about our past and future, maybe this kind of study can give us more experiences and confidence for our future.
I am glad to study your post at the right time. It helps a lot!
Best wishes!

Study our own History?? Yeah!! We made mistakes in the past and learn from it... And we're not afraid to make more... and never repeat the same mistakes twice!! :) Life is an ongoing journey of learning... that's the color of it... :)
Thanks God we have such a beautiful life with a lot of colors...like rainbows :) winkwink
