"Education is the ability to listen to almost anything without losing your temper or your self-confidence." – Robert Frost, Poet

Hi Bogdan, Yes, I agree with Mr. Frost - absolutely :-) I've also found in life that many listen but don't HEAR... therefore they remain ignorant i.e. uneducated. Mr. Frost, IMHO, was very correct by offering the alternative mindset because when some folks listen, they don't like hearing the TRUTH when it applies and they are angry without self-confidence. Proves one of the principles I am blessed to live by which is - “There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance—that principle is contempt prior to investigation.” - Herbert Spencer Have a great day, Mark

Hi Bogdan, My warmest greetings! I agree with you totally! It's very inspiring! Albert

In my full time job, I am a school band director. Education is what I'm all about. The reason this quote speaks the truth is simple: having knowledge and experience through education prepares you for any and all situations. There will not be a need for anger when you already have the knowledge of what to expect. If I had known what I was in for when I became a father for the first time, I would definitely have not lost my temper as much as I did. If I had known that network marketing would provide me with "personal growth with a pay plan attached," I would have started in it years ago. I DO know that education and persistence are an unbeatable combination. On and ever upward...

God gave us two ears and one mouth! Listen first, absorb the information and then speak when the person has finished. Thanks for reminding the world the correct order to use your ears and mouth!
