Many people are so busy working hard they have neither the time nor the energy to do the hard work. But even if everyone had the time and the energy, wouldn't we need to work hard to do all the things that hard work doesn't accomplish? Our future economic, political, and social future lies in realizing that there is a place for both hard work and working hard.

Today my hard work was to read a little of Warlick, Stager, Downes and Jarche and to think of ways to integrate what I learned into the current reality of our school system. It is hard work, but I'm willing to do it.

Thanks for providing me with food for thought.
