Always a good time to check your toolbox ... fact: if you accept credit for any successes, then you should be ready and willing to accept responsibility for the other ... the problem we often live with is that it's usually our critics who get to design the rubric.

Something to think on ...

[Davis O. Barker @barker_do]

Decision-makers who turn LEADERSHIP into adjectives/adverbs instead of nouns/ action verbs soon learn that if you don't listen to what TEAM members have to say, you're soon surrounded by folks who have nothing to say. LEADERSHIP is not a goal or a destination–it is an attitude.

TEACHING ON TURF 101: To paraphrase Einstein - If you can't explain it simply, then you don't understand it well enough yourself yet. In the end, it's not what you know, it's what you can teach and what your kids can learn.

Techniques and how they are taught may change, but basic fundamentals never do. Work on the fundamentals first, and then teach the techniques. If you don't, then your teaching will be in vain.

MATTER is the root word of MATERIAL. And in the end, MATERIAL MATTER won't really MATTER.

It's always good to know that you're on the right track ... but you can still get run over if you stop to admire the view ....
