- Do any stand out to you? “The dream begins with a teacher who believes in you, who tugs and pushes and leads you to the next plateau, sometimes poking you with a sharp stick called truth.” – Dan Rather
- Do any remind you of your mentor? "A mentor is someone who sees more talent and ability within you, than you see in yourself, and helps bring it out of you." — Bob Proctor
- Do you see yourself in one of these quotes? “The people closest to me determine my level of success or failure. The better they are, the better I am. And if I want to go to the highest level, I can do it only with the help of other people. We have to take each other higher.” – John C. Maxwell
- I connect with the following additional quotes :
- “Show me a successful individual and I’ll show you someone who had real positive influences in his or her life. I don’t care what you do for a living—if you do it well I’m sure there was someone cheering you on or showing the way. A mentor.” — Denzel Washington
- “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” — Maya Angelou https://www.mentorresources.com/mentoring-blog/20-inspiring-mentoring-quotes
Would you post any of these in your classroom, at the bottom of an email, etc?? I like number 3 because I believe feelings are most important ways to connect with others.
