Important Lessons

Lesson #1:  Mr.Ing read this to us to teach us that we should to get know other even though they might have nothing to do in out life.  It's important to meet other people.  Also, leadership works with a lot of people on campus.  For example the janitor, you might have to communicate with the janitor, but it would be better if you met him or her in the past.  What does this have to do with leadership?  We have to learn to get used to meeting new people.  Since leadership works with a lot of people around campus, we should meet people around school even though they might had nothing to do in your past life.  So it's good to respect and meet people around school because in leadership you never know if you might have to cooperate with them in the future.  The lesson I learned is to meet more people around school because you never know who never know who you might work with next.  Like you might have to work the the security, or even the lunch lady.  It's good to know people around campus because as I said before, you don't know who you'll work with next.



Lesson #2:  Mr.Ing read us lesson #2 because he wants us to learn that we have to treat everyone with respect no matter what skin color.  It doesn't matter about race, we should all show respect to everyone.  We should all treat each other with equality.  What does this have to do with leadership?  Leadership students associate with all kinds of people.  Blacks and whites.  We have to treat them with respect.  Especially because leadership helps everyone, whether we like it or not.  So we have to show respect to everyone no matter what race.  The lesson I learned is not to judge on what race a person is.  Black or white, it doesn't matter because everyone is human.  Everyone should and deserves to be treated good and with respect because it shouldn't and doesn't matter about skin color.

Lesson #3:  Mr.Ing read us lesson #3 because he wants us to learn that it's better to give than receive.  The boy would have gotten the 50 cents ice cream, but he wanted to have enough to leave a tip.  I think that people back then usually didn't leave a tip, so that's probably why the waitress cried.  So, it's better to give than receive.  It always is.  What does this have to do with leadership?  In leadership, we give a lot.  We don't receive much from the people we help, but we do give a lot.  We help students, teachers, parents, etc etc.  Even though we don't get anything back in return, it always is better to give that receive.  Especially in leadership because we help everyone.  The lesson I learned, I basically just explained it.  Like I Said before, It's better to give than receive.  What I'm trying to say is that it's good to help and give to others.

Lesson #4:  Why did Mr.Ing read this to us?  He read this to us to teach us that with every good deed you do, something good will happen back to you.  Probably not right away, but something good will happen to you.  It's just good karma.  The man moved the boulder out of his way, and he received gold coins in return.  What does this have to do with leadership?  In leadership, you have to do good things.  Like the peasant did in the story.  You might not receive something good in return, but you will eventually.  Like if you give you respect to someone, they'll give respect to you in return.  The peasant moved the boulder, and he received gold coins in return.  Lesson Learned.  The lesson I learned is to do good things.  If you do, you won't receive things right away, but something good would probably happen in the future.  So it's good to help others, and to do good things.

Lesson #5:  Why is Mr.Ing reading this to us?  He read this lesson to us so we learn that sometimes we have to sacrifice for others.  The boy sacrificed his life for his sister.  Sacrificing helps others, like it helped the sister who had a bad disease.  What does this have to do with leadership?  In leadership, we sacrifice a lot.  Like our time.  We don't have a lot of time with friends because we sacrifice it to work for leadership.  We need to help others in leadership, other than partying or having fun with our friends.  This is what it has to do with leadership.  Lesson learned.  The lesson I learned, well I just said it up there ^^^.  Sometimes you need to sacrifice.  Again, sacrificing means you're helping others.  Like the little brother helped his sisters.  It's basically an opportunity cost.  While you lose something, you or someone else is gaining something back.  While you lose time with your friends, someone is gaining your help while you're at leadership.  So the lesson I learned is to sacrifice for others.
