“We learn something from everyone who passes through our lives.

Some lessons are painful. Some are painless. But, all priceless”

As I see it . . . . . . .

There are valuable lessons to be learned . . . .

With each person that passes through our life . . . . can bring with them a valuable lesson.

There’s a coach that teaches us the value of hard work . . . . and the importance of team work.

A teacher who extends themselves to help us through a challenging class . . . . where we learn the value of a mentor . . . . and we are encouraged to keep trying.

The parents that helps us and shows us how to fix a broken toy . . . . they teaches us  lessons that they care enough about to help us to fix the toy . . . . By showing us how to fix the toy . . . . they also teach us to be self-reliant.

There are also people that pass through our life that will try to deceive us . . . . and we learn the lesson how to evaluate people and judge their trustworthiness through their actions.    

There are valuable lessons to be learned . . . . they will help us to grow as person and we will learn who are our coaches . . . . who we can trust . . . . and those we should avoid.

Nipped in the Bud

Motivational Power Quote

Nipped in the Bud    

“Creativity is so delicate a flower that praised tends

to make it bloom,  while discouragement often nips it in the bud.

Any of us will put more and better ideas if our efforts are appreciated.”

Alexander Osborn, the father of brain storming

Nipped in the bud

Have you ever watch the interaction of a parent or a grandparent with the young child?

They are encouraging the child to take their first step, acknowledges their art work at a young age. They will encourage the child after they strike out in a baseball game or lose a game.

Teachers encourage their students with a little note of encouragement on the child’s school work or a happy face sticker.   

The encouragement takes hold at a young age and the encouragement and praise builds the confidence and self-esteem of the child.

The lack of encouragement and praise has the opposite effect. The child has no point of reference and very likely will grow up with low self-esteem and lack confidence and their natural talent will be nipped in the bud.

A persons self-esteem is fragile a word of encouragement can lift it. A lack of encourage can wither it.

Don’t allow anyone to discourage you and show appreciation in the people you meet and you true talents will bloom and you and your talent will not be nipped in the bud.
