Here is a little thing I got in email last year:

I have modified it slightly to protect the innocent...haha


<<<<
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 contest.
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.
7. Name the finalist from the last five TOC's?


How did you do?
I got the TOC guys but not all of them. Wealthy Well I guess Bill Gates is
in there?

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.

These people above 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.
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
6. Name half a dozen heroes whose stories have inspired you.


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.

By making a mark on the pattern world and helping a MAC'er or Sport guy to
improve his flying, solve a radio problem or even have a good day. You as a
person and a "stuck up Pattern guy" can maybe make it into the list above.

Again things that make you go HMMMMMMMM
