Now let's look back at ourselves and observe - what kind of person am I? Developmental, civilized, or developing?

As soon as we say civilized and developed, this image comes to our mind – it looks good and attractive . However, the reality is different . Civilized and developed means a society that is constantly moving towards convenience and progress of work . Where work is done, and work is respected, and work on time and time are also important .
We are citizens of a developing country with a development-oriented mindset . That is why, when every activity is made public, it is said, wow, good . In developed countries, work is respected, life is simple and normal, new inventions are searched for, learning continues and that country continues to move forward on the path of progress and development .
Therefore, let us be aware of promoting development-oriented thinking and illusions by making public every momentary glimpse of appearance and momentary pleasure. Let us rise above the thinking of the time when we make public every momentary glimpse of appearance and momentary pleasure and make our mental thinking broader and more realistic . And, only when life can return to normal would it be felt that we have taken a step towards development and modernity.
Today's children, youth and adults are all psychologically weak, capable of accepting only momentary responsibilities, and have a tendency to give more importance to problems than solutions. Haven't such activities questioned our family and social culture? It is time for us to be vigilant.
Everyone knows the saying that a person without knowledge is only ignorant or stupid, while a person with little knowledge is a fool. Today's youth and children are not so interested in studying, they enjoy consuming ready-made materials. Such as chat, GPT, AI, which makes the human brain relaxed. Their ability to think and act decreases, and people prefer to keep themselves busy with machines rather than in society. This is not to say that modern technology should not be used, but only that it should be used appropriately.
I am also affiliated with an institutional school. In the educational institution I am affiliated with, along with book knowledge, special importance is given to the life-useful education of children. Equal emphasis is also placed on preserving culture by making maximum use of skills, culture and technology, which develops skills such as strengthening self-confidence, being able to work in a group, and being able to make the right decisions. When I interact with children, I find myself following the pace of modernity and development.
Therefore, if today's crowd does not understand its meaning, 'today's children, the leaders of tomorrow's country' may get confused and wander. Now, let us become civilized, strong, and restrained by removing the distortions that are happening in the name of modernity and development. By emphasizing education with skills and culture, the future plans of the coming generation should also be prioritized for the benefit of the family, society and the country, and not for foreign countries. Only in this way will we be known as developed citizens of developed countries in the coming days as a change in the development-oriented thinking of developing countries.
It is very important for people to be moral, characterful, honest and hardworking. Which is something that today's generation needs to realize. When today's society lags behind in such things, the generation itself feels left behind. Hasn't this generation embraced distortions in the name of culture, conduct, behavior and development instead of leaning towards our culture, conduct, behavior and development? It is necessary to teach the new generation that respect and honor for the elders and love and affection for the younger ones are important. It is necessary to teach about formal or informal greetings when meeting. The cordiality that science has also considered appropriate in terms of health. Hasn't our culture, rich in such customs, been lost somewhere? While we are talking big things, we are leaving small things out of life. So let's not delay now – let's look back at ourselves and observe – what am I like? Developmental, civilized or developing?
