今天班会的主题是儿童节，不过说的最多的还是个人成长。印象最深的还是海容提到的那个墓志铭。于是去搜了一下原文。我一开始想改变世界，到最后才发现其实改变自己最可行。这跟《高效能人士的七个习惯》里面谈到的专注于自己的影响圈而不是关注圈完全是一个意思。也许科威当初就是看到这个墓志铭或者看到纳尔逊·曼德拉的传记乃至其他成功人士的经历才做出了如此的结论。
这也是我最近最大的一个体会。不要抱怨别人对你做了什么（关注圈）。要看看自己能做什么来改变你不喜欢的情况（影响圈）。扩大自己的影响圈是自己可以做的的。先改变自己，其他就会自然而然的发生。子女教育是这样。职业生涯也是这样。和大家一起共勉。

When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits,I dreamed of changing theworld.
As I grew older and wiser, I discovered the world would not change, so I shortened my sights somewhat and decided to change only my country. But it, too, seemed immovable.
As I grewinto my twilight years, in one last desperate attempt, I settled for changing only my family, those closest to me, but alas, they would have none of it.
And now, as Ilie on my death bed, I suddenly realize:
If I had only changed myself first, then by example I would have changed my family.From their in spiration and encouragement, I would then have been able to better my country,and who knows, I may have even changed the world.
