Uncle Sam is bringing together
Students and Teachers in a Harmonizing World
Relationship
The state of being mutually or reciprocally interested in personal,
social, or commercial matters. (Daniel Webster)
The basic character of hospitality is gratitude for an opportunity to know another person, to have an opportunity to treat that person well. People genuinely enjoy being treated well. Is that a talent? Is it simple basic sincerity?
No doubt, relationship success comes from an attitude of honoring people; there is no trickery to giving a person something of genuine value. Genuine value has charisma. Charisma is “the quality of being believable in relationship; the ability to reveal one’s soul and heart without fear; the ability to make people interested in hearing what you say. Teachers who have charisma make learning attractive. Students attracted to learning show the most interest and improvement.
A charismatic believable teacher imparts important information with enthusiastic honesty. This transaction has depth, therefore stays longer in memory, enabling all toward a higher potential. In addition teachers who can reduce student fear increase cooperation and trust. Trust is success, that is to say teachers or business people who breed fear and distrust create anger and disappointments that can lead to violence. It is wisdom to understand the deeper purpose of life and to learn how to be completely trustworthy. Trustworthiness is earned by a decision made inside the mind. Once the decision is made, quality of life leaps forward.
If we observe the success of Costco, an ethical profit making organization, or the Red Cross, a non-profit, both successes are based on trusting people to help one another other to do well. This attitude assures friendship and generosity without much waste.
