Dr. Judith’s Saturday Blog – Be A Doer … Not a Dreamer

As a kiddo in elementary school, my report cards would often have a note from my teacher—I needed to learn to be more patient with others. It was a flag to my parents, who rarely cared what I did or said. I was the solo girl with three brothers. They counted, I didn’t. But my many teachers did. “Be more patient with others …” became something I grew into.

The patience lesson carried into adulthood: Look for other value and skills in others that lacked the ones that couldn’t match my own. The return was far greater when my patience stretched the most.

Dr. Judith Briles started writing notes to her classmates in first grade … and got into “disruptive trouble” from her teachers. She’s now the author of 47 books and counting, still being a disrupter. Her books have won over 55 book awards and been Amazon bestsellers. You can follow her professional side at www.TheBookShepherd.com where she works with writers to become published authors.
