I'm excited about beginning to blog! This is another step in my adventure to let the world know about my passion and purpose...I recently It's Not What You Sell, It's What You Stand For by Roy Spence and Haley Rushing. On the front of the book jacket, Jim Collins, author of Good to Great, comments on the this book's focus on the passionate pursuit of a purpose beyond money.
That really struck a chord in my heart!
I am PASSIONATE about enhancing and extending the knowledge and skills of educators (PreK-12) so ALL children will not only be successful readers, but will learn to love to read. High literacy skills in today's world (and certainly even more so in the world of tomorrow) are absolutely vital for personal and community success.
Recent research indicates that the happiest people in the world are not those with the most money, but those who realize their own sense of purpose, plus a sense that they are contributing to something bigger than themselves.
This blog reflects my own sense of purpose. More details to come soon!
