When I started working with kids oh too many years ago (30+), I told myself "you don't have to make a big impact, you just have to hope that at one time in one of these kid's lives they will remember something you said and it will help them. That will be enough." Well, today, all these years later, a young woman I worked with last year gave a senior speech and said that something I told her was her guiding principal in life. "Where attention goes, energy flows." I listened to her speech and felt that my self-talk all those years ago had finally come home to affirm and validate me. We all matter. Never underestimate the difference one person can make in another person's life.
