Practice not preach

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Wednesday, 18 Feb '09

“One man practicing sportsmanship is better than a hundred teaching it.”

--Knute Rockne

My Thoughts:
Action speaks louder than words –You would have heard this many times. The above quote sends a similar message.

Many people would teach you what to and what not to do. But that it is less effective that a person showing you the same thing by himself doing it.

The best Help

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Thursday, 25 Sept '08

“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”

--Chinese Proverb

My Thoughts:
This proverb from the sea of Chinese wisdom tells you one simple thing – if you want to help someone, the best help is not to give away something, but to teach the person how to be self-sufficient.

No help is better than that where you make a person stand on his own feet and be independent of others.

Life is a Tough Teacher

Quote & Thought for the Day -- Thursday, 4 Sept '08

“A teacher teaches lesson first and then takes the exam. Life takes the exam first and then teaches a lesson.”

--Francis Bacon

My Thoughts:

Every Teacher has a different teaching style. Life is also a great teacher and it's style is to teach it the hard way.

Not much to say today....looking forward to hear it from you.
