    Free fall; Soft Landing
Getting off the Conveyor Belt can feel like you're in free fall! But with the right attitude, the right resources and the commitment to do your part (and not try to do anyone else's) you can land safely--and even have fun with it!

 
 
"Some people coming off the conveyor belt are rather harsh critics when assessing their own strengths. It is my observation that  the trajectory is more important than the locus on the grid. In other words: It's not our level of previous achievement as much as our current forward momentum that inspires and moves our children.

"The almost-perfect mom/educator who is static in her progress (intellectually dormant--well-educated or not) has virtually no power to animate others to self-education and success in personal mission.  In contrast, the [perceived] limping efforts of a committed self-educator to be all she can be achieves amazing results!

"Two main points need your attention during this process, and should probably be undertaken pretty much at the same time:

  1. Get busy on your own education.
  2. Pay the price to develop a clear vision of the principles of Leadership Education."
