Your Example

"Example isn't another way to teach, it is the only way to teach." - Albert Einstein

There is an age old saying which says, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." It could be easy for us to simply put this off and tell someone to learn it on their own. the reason is that there is quite a bit one can learn by reading and absorbing the content of many good books, blogs and other resources.

But to show someone, to teach them by example goes much further.

This is not simply in the educational realm of teaching. The way you live your life, the way you conduct yourself has a huge influence on those around you. Your kids may hear you say, "pick up your clothes" but if you leave your clothes laying around, the net result is they will leave theirs laying around.

Living by example is much more powerful.

It impacts others in ways you may not have ever considered. I am not perfect in this but I do try to conduct myself to set a good example. I try to be aware that what I do is watched and learned by other. We are each human and that implies we are fallible.

It is in striving to teach others by example that sets the stage for everyone to grow to a greater life. Show others by example and impact their life. In turn your own life will grow in ways you never thought possible.

Stay inspired my friends!
