The Charlie Schulz Philosophy =3D20
=3D20
The following is the philosophy of Charles Schulz, the creator of the
'Peanuts' comic strip.
You don't have to actually answer the questions. Just ponder on them.
Just read the e-mail straight through, and you'll get the point.
1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.
2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.
3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America pageant.
4 Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and
actress.
6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series Winners.
=3D20
How did you do?=3D20
The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.
These are no second-rate achievers.
They are the best in their fields.
But the applause dies...
Awards tarnish.
Achievements are forgotten.
Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.
=3D20
Here's another quiz. See how you do on this one:=3D20
1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.
2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.
3. Name five people who have taught you something worthwhile.
4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and
special!!
5. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.
=3D20
Easier?=3D20
The lesson:
The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the
most credentials..
the most money..or the most awards.
They simply are the ones who care the most=3D20
=3D20
Pass this on to those people who have either made a difference in your
life, or whom you keep close in your heart, like I did.
'Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already
tomorrow in Australia, isn't it IVOR?!'=3D20
=3D20
''Be Yourself. Everyone Else Is Taken!=3D20

In my book, People who we remember for their contributions to our lives
have, as the Vikings I believe put it; "Word Fame".
That's a phrase I think says it all!
