You are surrounded by teachers. Don’t believe me? You are – the woman with the beautiful smile at the drive-through window this morning taught you that there are happy people everywhere. The person wearing too much fragrance taught you that moderation is a way to be considerate of others. The mother yelling at her toddler at the park taught you that “out of control” isn’t a look you want to wear, especially not in public.

Everyone is your teacher when you’re focused enough on your surroundings to notice and process the details. Others are usually so focused on their own lives that they have no idea they’re teaching you, and yet you can learn from them anyway. The flip side of the coin is also true – you are a teacher. Every time you go out into the world, whether you interact with others or not, your actions and attitudes have the potential to reach others and teach others, often in profound ways.

At the end of the day today, take a few minutes to think about the people you might have taught and what they would have learned from you. If some of the lessons make you cringe, it’s OK – those are learning moments for you.

What are you teaching the world? What do you want to be teaching?
