Our "Monday Morning Ed-U-Upper" has become
the most widely read e-mail periodical directed to educators.
It's free and goes all over the world every Monday
morning. You will find it short, filled with humor, quotes, motivational
pieces, fresh ideas, and bits of this and that.
We hope you'll try it. It's easy to get on, and very
easy to get off.

WE CAN LEARN A LOT
FROM CRAYONS...
Some are sharp. Some are pretty. Some are dull.
Some
have weird names, and are in different colors.
But they all have
to learn to live in the same box!
IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE
YOU'RE GOING...
It doesn't matter which door you open!
BEING GOOD AT STUPID
DOESN'T COUNT...
Try studying—amazing results may occur!
ATTITUDES ARE
CONTAGIOUS...
Is yours worth catching!
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU KNOW
THAT COUNTS...
It's what you think of in time!
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO
SUBSTITUTE...
For a genuine lack of preparation!
IF IT IS TO BE...
It's up to me!
NO PERSON HAS A BETTER
COMMAND OF THE
ENGLISH
LANGUAGE...
Than the one who keeps his mouth shut!
REMEMBER TO GET
A CHECK-UP...
From the neck up!
NONE OF THE SECRETS OF
SUCCESS WILL
WORK...
Unless you do!
NEVER MISS A GOOD CHANCE...
To shut up!
CONFIDENCE DOESN'T COME FROM
KNOWING
ALL THE ANSWERS...
It comes from not being afraid to ask
all the
questions!
IN DIFFICULT MOMENTS,
BEHAVE LIKE A DUCK...
Keep calm and unruffled on the surface,
but paddle like crazy underneath!
THE TROUBLE WITH
IGNORANCE IS...
That it picks up confidence as it goes along!
FIND THE KEY TO YOURSELF...
And every door in the world is open to you!
DESTINED FOR GREATNESS...
But pacing myself!
THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
IS SINCERITY...
Once you can fake that,
you've got it knocked!
ONE GOOD THING
ABOUT
FAILURE...
It doesn't make anyone jealous!
BE ALERT!
The world needs more lerts!
IF AT FIRST YOU
DO SUCCEED...
Try not to look astonished!
IF AT FIRST YOU
DON'T SUCCEED...
See if the loser gets anything.
THERE ARE TWO RULES FOR
ULTIMATE SUCCESS IN LIFE...
1. Never tell everything you know.
GENERALLY SPEAKING...
You aren't learning much
when your mouth is moving!
THE BEST WAY TO
SUCCEED IN LIFE...
Is to act on the advice you give to others!
THE THINGS THAT COME
TO THOSE WHO WAIT...
May be the things left by those
who got there first!
THE SOONER YOU FALL
BEHIND IN YOUR
WORK...
The more time you'll have to catch up!
IT IS BETTER TO
REMAIN SILENT...
And risk the chance of appearing ignorant,
than to speak, and remove all doubt!
HONOR TEACHERS!
A MIND IS LIKE A PARACHUTE...
It works best when it's open!

problem you had last year."

Foster Dulles
"PEP"
IS...
Persistence Enthusiasm Patience
A
WISE OLD OWL...
A wise old owl lived
in an oak,
The more he saw, the less he spoke.
The less he spoke, the more he heard,
Why can't we be, like that wise old bird?
