I watched these two ladies meet with each other to talk about their experiences of starting two initiatives. One established the training centre for teachers for Montessori education and the other established the Montessori education centre for young children in a city.
While listening to the conversation between of these two friends, I was moved by their passion and sense of purpose. They convey enthusiasm, hope and creativity. They are both change initiators.
This conversation helped me to ponder over the issue of 'what sustains one's enthusiasm'.
No matter how old or young a person is to attempt any change process.
What influences any one to consider taking new initiatives is to grow in mindfulness of others and their needs.
This awareness of the needs of our neighbours, friends, or strangers is both a gift and an acquired quality. Jesus of Nazareth challenged his followers, by saying, 'Love your neighbour as yourself'.
How much of others and their needs occupy our attention!
