ImagineIf teachers were regarded with the same high degree of respect (& compensated accordingly) as other higher-paying professions that often have less of a long-term impact as teachers have the potential to.

ImagineIf students were allowed more flexibility to pursue knowledge & skills that truly interested them instead of being forced through a system seeking to make workforce clones.

ImagineIf we put as much money & effort into actually educating people as companies do in convincing consumers they need to have, do, watch & ultimately *buy* all the right things in order to be cool, sexy, appealing, healthy & happy.

ImagineIf there was less emphasis on mindless & endlessly repetitive TV, processed foods, and the “necessity” of alcohol in people’s lives and more emphasis on mentalhealth, healthyliving & personalgrowth.

ImagineIf more people earned the attention they get for being a goodexample & setting high standards (See, for example, @therock) than they did for creating controversy, being hateful, or making spectacles of themselves for 15 minutes of fame.

Too many people focus on making money rather than on providing value. Focusing on one often emphasizes greed & leaves you wanting. Focusing on the other often emphasizes selflessness & creates fulfillment & provides recipients with something worth paying for. Choose wisely.

In today’s world, controversy is easy to find. If you want quality content, you’ll have to look harder. SocialMedia & themedia drive controversy & clickbait because it creates engagement. Don’t let yourself be manipulated like that. Keep your focus & attention in check.

Always prioritize the value of the package, not the production. In a world overflowing with flashy overproduced & easily forgettable superficial garbage, focus on the substance & the potential value things provide & not just on how they are marketed to appear.

Be mindful of seeking immediate results & instantgratification. Just because you don’t get results exactly when you want them doesn’t mean you never will. Be patient. Little efforts can add up to big things. In a world that only pays attention to today, try to think longterm.
