			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-75" title="Picture1" src="http://startme2009.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/picture1.jpg?w=480&#038;h=359" alt="Picture1" width="480" height="359" /></p>
<p>The START ME project was a perfect way to get profound contact with Romanian youth. At the same time, while preparing and developing teaching material, I also learned a lot about personal development and career planning myself. The classes were serious as well as amusing, with a lot of laughter.</p>
<p>AIESEC gave us, the trainers, also the opportunity to organize activities outside the classes, which added a lot of informal, joyful and wonderful moments with the Romanian students and some of them even became my friends. This internship in Iaşi was honestly one of the best experiences of my life.</p>

<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-79" title="Picture3" src="http://startme2009.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/picture3.jpg?w=480&#038;h=359" alt="Picture3" width="480" height="359" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p>The purpose of START ME project was not only to educate young people in aspects of daily life and moral or material values, but also to bring a personal point of view of the trainers into everything they taught.</p>
<p>I can honestly say that it was a success – the students in Iasi were lucky enough to have 4 trainers who did the best job they could, who taught us how to deal with all sorts of problems and how to always have a positive attitude. But the most important thing they managed to teach us was that every single one of us is important and that we are the ones who can make a difference.</p>
<p>The difference between this project and others I have participated to is that Renee, Eva, Jodie and Kyle (the trainers) were not our teachers – they were our friends; they did not have any sort of experience of teaching and they achieved their goal of making of difference by putting passion into everything.</p>
<p>I believe that it was a unique experience not only for us but for them as well and, as Jodie used to say, &#8220;<em>Ia</em><em>şi</em><em> and START ME are not a city and a project, they&#8217;re a way of life&#8221;.</em></p>

<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Being able to participate in the <strong>START ME</strong> project was one interesting experience in my life, because of the people I met, the new things I learned, the interesting things I found out from the trainers, Eva, Renee, Jodie and Kyle about their home countries and the places where they’ve been. During those week-ends of trainings, I realized that I can do better, I can work harder and that the people around me, if they are motivated, they can work very good in teams, even if they don’t know each other.</p>
<p><strong>START ME</strong> practically invited me in to a new world, and opened a few doors for me which I never knew were there and I am happy that I chose to participate because to somewhat extent <strong>START ME</strong> changed my life, and namely: It taught me about myself, and how to better discover my true potential, it taught me how to work efficiently within a team, how to take responsibility both for my actions and for the actions of the team, it taught me how to manage my time and how to make important decisions as a leader.</p>
<p>As for the career orientation course, I knew to somewhat extent what I wanted to do with my life but I wasn’t 100% sure, and thanks to that part of the program I realized that making a choice on which all your future depends on, is extremely hard, that is why, now I know that I made my best choice and pursue my dream, because basically what I learned from carrier orientation was that you have to choose a university which both offers you a promising carrier and a high level of education, but most importantly, and the thing that matters the most is that you have to choose,  thinking that there is the best place for me because I love doing that, because it represents me, because it is my dream, and if it my dream, that means that no matter what, I CAN DO IT!</p>
<p>So, what <strong>START ME</strong> basically taught me is this: <strong>“You can do whatever you want, it’s in your power to do so, as long as you really want to do it, and you love doing it”.</strong></p>

<p>Daca ar fi sa pun o eticheta experientei mele in cadrul cursurilor “START ME!”, aceea s-ar numi “pozitiva”. Am cunoscut multi oameni haiosi si am reusit sa mai lasam la o parte din fitele de oameni maturi, ca sa radem de noi insine. Am intalnit persoane care n-aveau absolut nici o idee ce vor sa faca in viata, si oameni care isi planuisera totul pana la ultimul detaliu. Eu ma numar printre cei care stiu exact ce vor si, desi s-ar putea crede ca n-aveam nevoie de un astfel de “curs”, am invatat cum sa-mi organizez drumul pana acolo, cum sa-mi ating scopurile intermediare si, mai ales, cum sa dau glas visurilor mele. Numai eu stiu cat de greu e sa spui cu voce tare ce iti doresti, fara sa te gandesti ca e o prostioara sau ca ceilalti nu te vor lua in serios, asa ca am tot respectul pentru cei care au venit aici si si-au recunoscut temerile, dorintele, sperantele. E foarte interesant sa vezi exact cate persoane de varsta ta trec prin aceleasi situatii si gasesc impreuna solutii. E inspirant!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My Dear Students,</p>
<p>A mother Mandarin duck leaps out of a hole in a tree, spreads her wings, and floats gently to the ground where she proceeds to chirp coaxingly up at the tree.</p>
<p>A fuzzy little head appears at the hole and the next thing you know, Junior flings himself out too. In an act of faith genetically programmed into the duckling’s DNA, he jumps. He can’t fly, but nature has taken care of that too—a layer of dry leaves waits on the ground for him, deposited there by the same tree that sheltered the duck family through winter. It’s a tough landing, uncomfortable—but not fatal.</p>
<p>I think the young adult human is guided by this same instinctual legacy, to leave the safety of home and venture out. Somehow we know that we can’t reach our full potential if we just stay within our narrow experience and understanding of the world. We need to stretch our wings, even before we know how to use them, even if our initial foray brings some pain.</p>
<p>So, my dear students, go out there and get uncomfortable.</p>
<p>Jump out of the nest and land on your behind or your head or your feet—it doesn’t really matter. Answer that Call to Adventure, whatever sound it makes for you. Challenge yourself to do things you don’t think you can do. Don’t ask for too much help. Live on the smallest amount of money you can. Sign up for a project to help people who have even less. Meet all kinds of people. See the world. Get a job doing something you’d never choose as your career. Take a dance class if you’re a math major. Take an engineering class if you’re a history major. Fail at lots of things. Listen to people who disagree with you. Get your heart broken. Learn to speak another language. Cook a four-course dinner for your roommates. Climb a mountain. Travel.</p>
<p>Whatever you do, reflect on every experience you have. Keep asking: Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going?</p>
<p>As I write this, two astronauts are out in space repairing the Hubble telescope. For almost 20 years, this instrument has sent us photos of our planet, our solar system, our galaxy, our universe. We’ve seen how stars are born and how they explode in supernovas.</p>
<p>These pictures are beautiful and fascinating, but, more importantly, they have helped shape our understanding of who we are. They have given us perspective, something you only get when you look at something from a distance, when you leave your accustomed way of thinking. The more perspective you gain, the wiser you become.</p>
<p>Aristotle said that the true nature of anything is the highest it can become. Finding our highest potential might then be our most basic instinct; accelerated by our ability to reflect and learn. If you live the examined life, you will become more fully human. You will make a more meaningful contribution and you will be happier.</p>
<p>All the best to you in your learning journey through life!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Iata ca Tudor Chirila are un mesaj pentru liceeni. Si noi vi-l recomandam.</p>
<p>Pe blogul <strong>Vama</strong>.</p>
<p><a href="http://tudorchirila.blogspot.com/2009/03/scrisoare-catre-liceeni.html" target="_blank">http://tudorchirila.blogspot.com/2009/03/scrisoare-catre-liceeni.html</a></p>
<p><span id="more-38"></span>Noi am pierdut. Dar voi, voi mai aveti o sansa. Noi am fost fericiti ca am descoperit Coca-cola si bananele si am crezut ca daca noi citim, si ei vor citi. Si ca toti vom progresa si tara o sa aiba scapare. Noi ne-am inselat. Unii dintre noi au plecat de aici. Castiga bani acolo si tanjesc dupa orasul asta imputit. Voi insa, voi aveti o sansa. Voi, aveti sansa.</p>
<p>Nu va ganditi la furat. E calea cea mai simpla. Stiu ca ati aflat ca asa te imbogatesti. Daca ai pamant sau daca faci afaceri cu statul. Stiti voi ceva despre tva si cum ai putea sa-l furi, dar nu va e inca foarte clar. Nu asta e drumul. Cu cat se va fura mai mult, cu atat se va construi mai putin, iar copiii copiilor nostri vor mosteni un imperiu de cenusa. Sunteti tineri si totusi habar n-aveti ce inseamna un Bucuresti in care se circula normal. Daca voi habar n-aveti si daca Ei continua sa fure, ganditi-va la copiii nostri. Nu e nici o sansa.</p>
<p>Cititi. Cititi mult. Cititi tot ce va pica in mana. Nu-i mai ascultati doar pe profesori. Cititi orice, fara discernamant. Nimic nu e mai important ca lectura, acum. Apoi, cautati-va intre voi. Vedeti care cititi aceleasi lucruri si inhaitati-va. Numai in haita de oameni destepti o sa reusiti. Unul singur dintre voi va fi mancat. Zece insa, s-ar putea sa reusiti. Ganditi-va de pe acum sa-i inlocuiti. Timpul lor trebuie sa se termine. Trebuie sa-i dominati. Dar nu cu gandul ca veti fura mai mult ca ei. Asta e calea simpla care va va sufoca mostenitorii. Ce-o sa faceti cu milioanele intr-un oras mort? Ce-o sa cumparati, cu banii gramezi? La ce-ti foloseste un Lamborghini cand n-ai o autostrada? De ce sa ai o vila intr-un cartier sufocat de inundatii?</p>
<p>Nu va dusmaniti profesorii. Sunt oameni amarati, din ale caror drame puteti invata. Isi dau priceperea pe un salariu de nimic si va invata carte. Nu va bateti joc de ei. Au muncit, si nu e vina lor ca parintii vostri s-au descurcat mai bine. N-aveti nici un drept sa-i dispretuiti. Nu le sunteti superiori. Banii parintilor vostri nu va reprezinta. Va reprezinta doar ceea ce puteti scoate pe gura. Aveti grija ce scoateti pe gura. Vremea pumnului si a bodiguarzilor a trecut. O sa calatoriti, iar copiii francezi invata carte, englezii la fel. Va confruntati cu o lume care acum e mai deschisa decat oricand. Hotii de la putere nu sunt in stare sa va spuna cine este Delacroix sau Chagall. Nici Duchamp. Nu va pot spune care e influenta lui Schopenhauer in Sarmanul Dionis si nici de ce este Eminescu un romantic intarziat. Foarte putini o sa va spuna cine a pictat Cina cea de taina si de ce Visconti a ales romanul lui Thomas Mann ca sa faca un mare film. Ei vor sti doar sa va invete sa furati. Iar calea asta, mai devreme sau mai tarziu, se va infunda si ne va asfixia copiii.</p>
<p>Nu va mai luati dupa ziare. Nu dau doi bani pe generatia voastra, nu va dati seama? Pentru ei, cu cat sunteti mai prosti, cu atat le va fi mai usor sa va vanda orice cacat. Iar cacatul pe care il veti cumpara va fi obtinut de la prosti, platiti pe masura. Adica prost. Eleva porno este un exemplu. Nu cititi ziarele. Cititi cateva, cele care va informeaza. Nu marsati la orice promotie. Fiti mai selectivi.</p>
<p>Nu fumati iarba si nu va dati in cap cu alcool, cu orice pret. O sa le dati apa la moara incultilor si hotilor de la putere. Le va fi mai simplu sa va catalogheze drept o generatie de distrusi, iar banii destinati salvarii voastre, ii vor fura. E timp si pentru iarba, e timp si pentru tequilla. Acum insa trebuie sa invatati, pentru ca in curand nu va mai fi timp pentru asta, caci veti intra in viata adanc de tot, si e mai rau ca in jungla. Animalele au reguli nescrise. Oamenii au legi scrise.</p>
<p>Nu alergati dupa bani cu orice pret. Banii trebuie sa va fie doar mijloc, nu scop. Scopul vostru trebuie sa fie cunoasterea. Cu cat veti sti mai multe, cu atat veti fi mai inalti. Orice carte citita, orice lectie invatata, se vor aseza sub voi si va vor ridica deasupra celorlalti. Veti domina cu mintea. Nu e nimic mai frumos decat asta. Europa cumpara inteligenta. Romania nu cumpara nimic pentru ca hotii nu construiesc, hotii fura. Nu uitati ca va fura pe voi si asta trebuie sa va opreasca. O sa auziti toata viata de Napoleon si de Nicolae Titulescu, dar sigur copiii vostri nu vor sti cine a fost Emil Boc. Istoria o scriu cei care construiesc.</p>
<p>Sunteti tineri. Nu va ganditi ca sunteti slabi. Puterea voastra sta in curatenie. Sunteti curati, n-au apucat sa va manjeasca, dar daca dintre voi nu se vor ridica luptatorii, o sa va improaste cu noroiul strazilor pe care nu le-au reparat. Fiecare picatura de noroi sunt banii care n-au ajuns pe strada aia. Trebuie sa schimbati asta. Care e calea? Sa cititi. Literatura universala o sa va invete sa deosebiti Binele de Rau. Balzac, Stendhal, Dumas, Dostoievski, Dickens, Tolstoi, Goethe, toti deosebesc Binele de Rau. Din prezentul amaratei asteia de tari nu puteti invata Binele. Binele puteti fi voi. Si cu cat veti fi mai multi buni, cu atat veti sufoca raul. Nu e imposibil. Dati scrisoarea asta mai departe. Deveniti buni, mai buni, cei mai buni si raspanditi-va precum lacustele.</p>
<p>Nu-i invidiati pe oamenii cu bani. Nu va faceti modele din baietii de bani gata, din baietii de oras. Dupa treizeci si noua de ani le va ramane doar o lista lunga de femei. Or trofeele astea sunt trecatoare. Cand imbatranesti si trofeul tau va fi o baba. Dupa asta vine singuratatea. Voi aveti sansa sa lasati ceva in urma voastra. Banii nu sunt Calea. Priviti unde ne-a adus setea de bani.</p>
<p>Nu va resemnati, asta nu duce nicaieri. Capul plecat, sabia il taie. Protestati, luptati, protestati. Cu scop, insa. Nu degeaba, ca altfel se transforma in latrat. Invatati legile. Invatati-va drepturile. Atunci veti sti cand are cineva voie sa va legitimeze. Veti sti cum sa luptati, daca veti sti legile. Apoi o sa vedeti ca legile sunt proaste. Si veti intelege ca trebuie sa le schimbati. Pare greu si cere timp. Dar, Doamne, voi aveti timp si pentru voi nimic nu e greu. Voi nu intelegeti ca SUNTETI SCHIMBAREA? Daca voi lasati tara asta pe mana hotilor, atunci, de-abia copii vostri vor mai avea o sansa! Caci sansa vine o data la o generatie. Noi am pierdut. Cativa dintre noi, si nu suntem putini, va putem ajuta. Noi suntem Fomila si Setila, dar voi sunteti Harap-Alb. Alegeti dintre voi pe adevaratii lideri. Sa-i alegeti si sa nu-i invidiati. Lor le va fi cel mai greu. Vor avea gloria, dar si cosmarul. Vor fi salvatorii vostri, dar se vor pierde pe ei insisi. Liderii trebuie sa fie dintre voi. Si trebuie sa-i cautati de pe acum. Uitati-va unii la altii in fiecare zi si cautati-va capitanii. Altfel veti pieri o data cu noi. Si atunci portile libertatii ne vor fi inchise si EI vor castiga. Cine sunt ei? Stiti foarte bine. Ii vedeti in ziare, in fiecare zi.</p>
<p>Salvati-va! Salvati-ne! Este o singura cale! Lupta cunoasterii!! Si cand veti fi castigat lupta cunoasterii, de-abia atunci veti cunoaste sa luptati cu adevarat!!!</p>
<p>Nu va amagiti cu prezentul&#8230; Salvati-va in viitor. Noi am pierdut. Voi? Ce faceti?</p>
