I have a challenge at school. Sometimes I find it particularly difficult to have to trim down my efforts to meet the teacher’s requirements.
It is true that I get frustrated because I have done the job I am studying for. I have been a boss. I have had to hire and fire people. I have managed budgets and have determined needs and planned training programs based on those needs. I am not perfect but I have a significant amount of experience and sometimes more experience than some teachers. It is there that I find it hardest to just listen and deliver only what the teacher wants but that is the what the teacher wants. If a boss asks me for something it is not my place to suggest he wants something else. To give him 20 pages to have to sort through rather than the 2 pages of precise data he requested is not doing any one a service. Learning comes not in doing what we know and how we have always done things but in allowing ourselves to try something new on for size. Value can be found in many ways. As I said yesterday, it is a matter of perspective.
So back to my homework I go, humility in hand, towards change.
Namaste!
