Thank you for the lesson.
While reading your response, I went back to year 12 in school, when I failed English (the first time, may be the first time the examiner did not know me). A friend, who actually liked me as a person, was talking to a teacher about, I guess, his excellent results and his future. We were standing in front of the bulletin board with our results on it. In front of me, probably in my defense, he said to the teacher, "John only does just enough to get by." That was a long time ago. Ignorance of how things are does not change with time BY IT SELF. But with the ATTITUDE you have shown me, I think the world will change for us and those like us.
Thank you for showing me the missing piece in my strategy. And thanks for showing me the multiple dimensions to a positive strategy. All the best for your future.
The world is already changing as you are "being the change you want".
