A + I = M with Mr Patterson

This morning we had Mr Patterson come and see us and he taught us about goals in life like being a rugby player,artist or even travel the world and also the other side of things like  the money we might need for our goals in life.Like going college and thinking of our futures but we have to be sure to have a plan b cause we never know we might not achieve the first goal so we have a second one just in case.
           








"Be a giver not a taker" This Phrase he told us about it,about what it means it meant putting others before yourself,just like he did over the couple days.He told us a story about what he had done he had got a text saying your flight had been cancelled so the air nz had to put him and 199 more people in hotels for the night and as he looked back he saw a young couple with 3 kids under five so he allowed them to come in front of him and then the very first person in line said no they can come in front here and they were filled with happiness and everyone else started to think like that.







He also told us about a boy who helped a homeless man who had no marriage, no house and no job and everyday  that boy would give him food and money for atleast two weeks and after that the homeless man  walked him to school and told everyone how he had helped him and he got a gold certificate that are only given out once a year then a few days later the man who was homeless got a job and now lives in a rental home and is happy.









Before he had gone he had taught us about his formula  it goes like this A + I = M which means Aspiration +  Inspiration  = Motivation
as you might see it spells Aim as in Goal Aiming to do your besting and having a goal to set on our life's future it is actually very helpful the look on the  boys and girls faces looked interested like they were thinking about there futures already
