Listen "Episode 233: Listen & Learn"
Episode Synopsis
Recently, I read a book by H. Jackson Brown Jr. entitled, "Live and Learn and Pass it On." In the book, people, ages 5 to 95 share what they have discovered about life, love, and other good stuff. Some of the thoughts are a bit humorous, but somehow we can get the message. I've personally discovered throughout my years that if we really listen, we can learn so much. The following are a few quotes from individuals, and it lists their age when they said these words. "I've learned that goldfish don't eat jello." Age five. "I've learned that trust is the single most important factor in both personal and professional relationships." Age 20. "I've learned that nothing of value comes without effort." Age 64. "I've learned that if you care, it shows." Age 30. "I've learned that kindness is more important than perfection." Age 70. "I've learned that education, experience, and memories are three things no one can take away from you." Age 67. "I've learned that self pity is a waste of time." Age 81. "I've learned that anger manages everything poorly." Age 53. "I've learned that some money costs too much." Age 51. "I've learned that if your children feel safe, wanted and loved, you are a successful parent." Age 39. "I've learned that encouragement from a good teacher can turn a student's life around." Age 44. "I've learned that I don't feel my age as long as I focus on my dreams instead of my regrets." Age 83. "I've learned that it is impossible to teach without learning something yourself." Age 51. "I've learned that learning to forgive takes practice." Age 15. "I've learned that I still have a lot to learn." Age 92. Warm Thought: A life, like a garden, requires cultivation.
