"The man who will use his skill and constructive imagination to see how much he can give for a dollar, instead of how little he can give for a dollar, is bound to succeed." -Henry Ford
We are all guilty of being selfish at one point or another. If a businessman is creating a small business or project, wants to take shortcuts here and there to save a few cents, his business may in the short/long run fail. Unlike the business man who will stretch his dollar,sacrifice, to make his business successful and really towards his target audience.
How I interpret this quote, as an educator, is success is seen when we focus on the needs of the student instead of seeing it as 'another day, another dollar'-meaning 'ok, let's do the basics and get by today'. When we take time and see what can we do to help an individual, follow through, the end result is a success.
I agree with your thought. You must give in order for you to gain in the long run
ReplyDeleteYour right. There are some teachers who work for the money and some who work for the ultimate reward: student success.
ReplyDeleteTrue that! Not only am I a mother at home, but school as well. The hugs I get from my students keep me working.
