1 " No one likes to feel used. When the perceived focus becomes the content over the person, people feel used. When teachers are valued only for the test scores of their students, they feel used. When administrators are " successful" only when they achieve " highly effective school" status, they feel used. Eventually, " used" people lose joy in learning and teaching. Curriculum does not teach; teachers do. Standards don't encourage; administrators do. Peaceable schools value personnel and students for who they are as worthy human beings. ... If your mission statement says you care, then specific practices of care should be habits within your school. "
2 " It's about making a choice to make your marriage a priority, to, kind of, put that at the top of the page, as your mission statement or something. "
― Liane Moriarty , Truly Madly Guilty
3 " The weird thing is that the more efficient, on task, on goal you are with your time, the more energy you have. Working with no traction, or for that matter simply wasting a day, does not relax you, it drains you.//Strange as it may seem, when you work a daily plan in pursuit of your written goals that flow from your mission statement born of your vision for living your dreams, you are energized after a tough long day. "
― Dave Ramsey , EntreLeadership: 20 Years of Practical Business Wisdom from the Trenches
