Before You’re Dirt

How-do-you approach the day?
Go through the motions,
So you can get paid?
Can’t wait for five o’clock?

What a sad way to live;
Uncommitted to purpose;
Like a boat that’s tied to a dock.

You’ve got to break out
And follow your heart.
And make the most
Of the time that’s here.

You’ve more to give.
You know you do.
The time is now
To address your fear.

This change means leaving comfort.
The steps you’ll take may hurt.
But-give-yourself some credit
Before-you become the dirt.

#Education

Einstein quotes to ponder, or ignore…

Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.

It’s a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.

The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.

The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge, but imagination.

The only source of knowledge is experience.

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.

A man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.

Confusion of goals and perfection of means seems, in my opinion, to characterize our age.

If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.
