Uniqueness

As a teacher I have learned some very important things that have helped me greatly in every aspect when dealing with other people.

Everyone is unique.  Each person learns differently.  Each person feels emotions differently.  Each person processes energy differently.  Each person sees things differently.  Each person hears things differently.  Each person remembers things differently.  Everyone's brain is wired differently based on genetics and life experiences.  Everyone experiences the world in their own way.  Every thought, sight, sound, touch, emotion is processed through very unique brain systems.  The same thing that is seen by two people is not processed the same way, it is not remembered the same way, it is not interpreted the same way.  Ever.  One's person vision of romantic and happy roses may be another person's vision of death and sorrow simply because their experiences are different.
Never assume that what you see, hear, feel, think, etc., is the same as someone else's because it's not, especially if you are in the position of authority.  You are unique, your thoughts, sights, smells, are unique and so are their's.  Never, ever, ever assume that just because one person appears to understand, feel, see, hear, it your way, that everyone else will too.
Remember that when working with people in any capacity and you will see that your patience and compassion is strengthened.
