Second wind

One of the greatest motivators an instructor is bestowed is when a participant (or two or three) tell you that you've done a good job, that they learned something they can use. I have been fortunate to be on the receiving end several times this week. It is such a blessing to have the opportunity to share my knowledge and see the changes that come about when a participant gets the A-HA look.

This week I have been shuttling back and forth between teaching two classes (one of them a 40 mile drive), going to my regular job, and coaching the Dale Carnegie class, I have been pushing my 40-something body well past its usual limits. It just amazes me how I can get a second or third wind because I love teaching so much. It truly puts the wind under my wings. YES, I'm tired but it's a good kind of tired.
