Monday Motivation….. January 29, 2018 (364)
Once upon a time two teachers were applying for the same Vice-Principal position at a local high school. One had been teaching a total of 8 years and the other since 20 years. Everyone expected the teacher with the greater experience to get the job, but when a decision was made, it was the person with 8 years teaching who was chosen.
The teacher overlooked for the job complained bitterly – “I’ve got 20 years teaching to her 8” he cried. “I’m vastly more qualified.”
The School Board’s reply went like this: “Yes sir, you do have 20 years teaching to her 8, but where she has 8 years’ experience you have 1 year experience repeated 20 times.”
Simply experiencing the passage of time doesn’t mean we have grown or learned from those things we experience during that time.
Moral:
The comfort zone is the great enemy to creativity; moving beyond it necessitates intuition, which in turn configures new perspectives and conquers fears. Keep engaged with variety of activities in your personal and professional interactions to make LIFE interesting!
Have a great week ahead..!
