Learning from the Inspiration of Others and Yourself – George Couros @gcouros | Daring Ed Tech | Scoop.it
One thing that is important to me is that we, as adults, are modeling the practice of elevating other adults and inspiring them to succeed in meaningful ways.  Not only is this beneficial to others, but ourselves.  When I do things to help others, it selfishly leads me to have a better feeling about myself. To know that I had a part in amplifying someone’s message or helping them in some way to get to a higher level of success is something that I find satisfying. But it is also modeling something to our students (and children) as well.  Why would kids cheer on one another if the adults are not doing the same?
