This will make you think…

The  following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the  ’Peanuts’ comic strip.

You don’t have to actually  answer the questions. Just ponder  on them.
Just  read the e-mail straight through, and you’ll get the  point.

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the  world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy  winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America  pageant.
4 Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer  Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for  best actor and actress.
6. Name the last decade’s worth of  World Series winners.


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 aided your journey through school.
2.  Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult  time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something  worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel  appreciated and special!!
5. Think of five people you enjoy  spending time with.


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 simply are the ones who care the  most


Pass  this on to those people who have made a difference in your  life.



”Be  Yourself. Everyone Else Is Taken!”
