Never Stop Learning

 

Never Stop Learning

Do you think people really mean it when they say that they learn something new every day? They should. Too often we treat the learning process as something with a specific end. We tend to say we "went to school" or "received an education". That sounds like we think we are done learning! Often in fact we hardly begin learning about life until after we are finished with our formal education. Perhaps we need to think of our education as an ongoing process not something that we have completed in the past. We really can learn something new every day and we should.

Seeking Approval

 

Seeking Approval

I touched on this a few weeks ago but here are some more thoughts on the problem with being focused on the approval of others … 

·         Edit yourself for approval and you become a minority shareholder in your own life.

·         Aim for accuracy, not approval.

·         It’s better to have the sting of honesty than the blindness of flattery.

·        You cannot be true to yourself while focused on the approval of others.

The Advantage

Someone always has an advantage. If you do not know who, it is not you!

Think about it.

Happy Labor Day!

Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is a creation of the labor movement and is dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. It constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.
