I am sitting on another train to Nottingham this morning and I saw this on the web and wanted to share it with you...
"Take this quiz:
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five FA Cup winners.
3. Name the last five Best Films at the Oscars.
4. Name five people who have recently won a Nobel Prize.
5. Name the last five British Prime Ministers.
6. Name the last five World Motor-racing Champions.
How did you do? The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:
1. List a few teachers who helped your journey through school.
2. Name five friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a five people who have made you feel, appreciated and special.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Name five heroes whose stories have inspired you.
Was this easier?
The lesson: The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care. Pass this on to those people who have made a difference in your life."
