Teacher Students and Student Teachers

I will continuously

Learn, Grow, Dream

Search, Ponder, Pray

Share, Uplift, and Inspire

so that I and those around me will become

SiFI Millionaires

(SiFI Millionaires being an acronym standing for Spiritual, Financial, and Intellectual Millionaires)

"Passion breeds preparation, preparations grows experience, experience cultivates


understanding, and understanding directs giving, sharing, and ultimately teaching.

Learn:

I feel that it is important to realize that no matter how good you think you are, there is always
someone better out there, that you havent learned it all, and that you can continue to stretch
and become greater. This may be uncomfortable, but hey, thats part of Growth

Grow:

So as a plant is always growing or dying, so are we. Sometimes we are tempted to take a small
break from learning and growing, choosing to relax and catch up on life. Though there is no
harm in a temporary reprieve, welike plantsbegin to die if we emulate the sofa spud for too
long. The rose doesnt achieve its full bloom by siting in the ground waiting for growth to
happen, but Dreams of seeing the sun and stretches for it

Dream:

Wandering in a city without a map is only eective if your goal is to go no where specific and
do nothing specific (or next to it). Having a goal or dream will help you streamline your priorities
until that goal is achieved. Dreams give you a reason to slim down the unnecessary things in
your life and help you understand what really matters. Plus, once you know what you want to
chase, you can start Searching for it

Search:

Searching is the action of pursing your dreams. It doesnt matter where the help comes from,
either up the progressive pyramid or below where you are currently at, because those who are
searching have only a dream or goal in mind. In their searching, Dreamers will often come to a
series of conclusions that will challenge what they already know, leading them to Ponder

Ponder:

Deep thought is among the attributes of the truly intelligent and is available to anyone who
seeks after it with enough intent. Critical thinking on a topic or challenge may lead to the
dreaming Seeker to the conclusion that is correct, whether it be Truth immutable or
circumstantially correct, however, when such a conclusion cannot be reached the Ponderer will
seek Him who knows all

Pray:

The Divine is the great source of all Truth. Those who ponder as the Ponderers do will
eventually be led driven to their knees seeking answers they cannot find. Those who commune
as the Devoted do gain the answers that no other will gain and with this knowledge they go
forth to Share and serve

Share:

Giving directions to those wandering the streets of life is an essential attribute of the True
Scholar, who realize that their climb is made easier by helping others to do the same as they
have done. It is at this point that the Generous of Self seek not only to give of self, but Uplift
others to do the same

Uplift:

A plant who receives no water dies by the way side. The Givers remember the times when they
themselves where receivers and help in ways thatbecause of their preparationonly they
can. Having walked the path, either themselves or from the shared knowledge of others, they
can share the light of hope with those whos torches have blown cold and shelter the downcast
with their knowledge of better things to come, because they have been there themselves and
have learned what it means to have the warmth rekindled in themselves. The Raiser in turn
seeks to Inspire the disheartened

Inspire:

I know that the influence of those who have inspired me has led me to the point of the journey I
am at now, able to pursue my ambitions because theyseeking the higherhave seen fit to let
me stand on their shoulders, without condition, for they understand whos shoulders they stand
on and will one day stand beside. The Inspired are not a small light in a dark room, but a
blazing beacon at a torrential sea, lighting the way for those who seek it. Their goal is that of
the SiFI Millionaires

SiFI Millionaires:

Those who follow the outlined path become Spiritually independent, Financially autonomous,
and Intellectually sovereign. They understand that they will become something more than they
are now, because that is the path they walked to get where they are and will continue to walk
for those who are Learned know learning comes with practice and is lost as easily as it is
gained.

Passion breeds preparation, preparations grows experience, experience cultivates


understanding, and understanding directs giving, sharing, and ultimately teaching.

Simply said, learning/teaching isnt a task to be done, but a life to be lived.
