PREFACE

Welcome to earth! Earth is one beautiful, mind-boggling treasure prepared and given to humans. In this treasure are subsets of other treasures that can satiate every need of humanity. This gives us a hint on the goal of life which is enjoyment.

The basic requirements for enjoyment are an awareness of it, and a decision to enjoy life. Awareness has to do with a steady consciousness that directs action, and enjoyment thrives on awareness. Humans ought to consciously, willingly, and actively fulfil the goal of life, both individually and collectively.

The Book is a guide that seamlessly dissolve impediments to the universal enjoyment of life.

CHAPTER ONE

THE TRUE MEANING OF ENJOYMENT

The belief that the goal of life is enjoyment is not new or strange to most humans. The creation of a social structure on earth is possibly an attempt made by human to ensure that living on earth is enjoyable. Humans have been very thoughtful. Social structure is made up of institutions which develop through human interaction. Therefore, the main component of social structure are the people. Without people, the structure is dead, or would be non-existent.

One good quality of structure is change, and humans make change happen when necessary. The fact that the human society has evolved from hunting and gathering, to industrial, biotech, and information societies prove that humans, irrespective of the era, have always been advocates of change. It is easy to guess that the reason for these changes is to make life better. Efforts at enjoying life through the established social structure have been a constant struggle. However, the capacity of human to review, upgrade, or overhaul a structure when the need arises, could be the hope that has kept the good desire to enjoy life alive and healthy within humans.

Simple, easy, and real are three characteristics of enjoyment. However, there is a problematic ideology of enjoyment that produces the contrary. The popular perception of enjoyment suggests that it is attainable through money, power, prestige, status, approval, and performance: this is an arduous error. Money and all others are merely aspects of human life that bear an extrinsic quality, which makes it incapable of satisfying. Satisfaction deals with the internal.

Enjoyment entails getting to a place of satisfaction and love for God, one’s self, and other humans, which affects how we use or treat things. So, how do we get to that place when the structure loudly approves and reflects a deficiency? The wrong notion of enjoyment has proven itself to be harmful. It has resulted in the proving of worth and scrambling of things. It is an obvious fact that humans are overly worked out from this seemingly endless pursuit of the mirage of enjoyment.

The efficacy of a structure must be sure and evidently good, because nothing is too good for humans. Distinct or subtle threat to the enjoyment of life is unacceptable. So, ideas that can refine recommended institutions of the structure, such as the school and that which provide job opportunities will be shared.

THE SCHOOL

The school is an institution of education. There are seven basic elements of a school system. Understanding their function in this system is important. These elements include: Teachers, Students, Language, Information, The mind, Test, and Time.

TEACHERS

They are agents for instruction, correction, guidance, and information in a school system. They impart content knowledge to students. Content knowledge is a product of information. The information teachers share with
