Do you really Care?, courtesy 6 Questions from Lighthouse

Please take a moment to answer these questions:-

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.

4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel Peace prize.
5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.
6. Name the winners of the last five major sporting events.

How did you do?

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 and achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Here's another set of questions. See how you do with these:-

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. Name a few people whose stories have inspired you.
6. Think of five people you enjoy spending time with.

Was this a little easier to complete?

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 are the ones that care.

When you care, you mean more to others.
