“Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning.” Benjamin Franklin
I have been stressing to my children the importance of education since their birth into this life. My grandmother always told me if I want respect from someone, anyone, educate myself and know what I’m talking about. My speeches to young people have mostly centered on education, being a great human being and world citizen. And we must recognize the need for growth is continual. No breaks from learning or improving your skillset. This week I believe you should make a thank you call to a teacher, mentor or parent as I’m sure they pushed you to further educational pursuits or endeavors.
