I accept this award on behalf of all the fine teachers I've known over the years who've struggled to make their transactions with children honorable ones, men and women who are never complacent, always questioning, always wrestling to define and redefine endlessly what the word "education" should mean.
A Teacher of the Year is not the best teacher around, those people are too quiet to be easily uncovered, but he is a standard-bearer, symbolic of these private people who spend their lives gladly in the service of children. This is their award as well as mine. We live in a time of great school crisis. Our children rank at the bottom of nineteen industrial nations in reading, writing and arithmetic. At the very bottom. Our school crisis is a reflection of this greater social crisis. I've noticed a fascinating phenomenon in my twenty-five years of teaching - that schools and schooling are increasingly irrelevant to the great enterprises of the planet.
Now here is a curious idea to ponder.
WHAT « The Bold Academy. The Bold Academy is a life-accelerator designed to arm you with the habits, values, courage, and community to overcome obstacles and boldly unleash your gifts on the world.
We have one mission: to help you lead the life you’ve always wanted to live, not the one you’re “supposed” to live. The world in which we currently live defines “success” as abiding by the status quo. We are expected to follow a conventional track, which oftentimes rejects peoples’ thirst for adventure and passion for authenticity. We’ve replaced the big questions which challenge us, with the little questions which placate us.
We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to explore what their true journey is; to have the time and space to discover not the path expected of them, but the winding, chaotic, wonderful, terrible, treacherous, tremulous, and ultimately joyous path that is distinctly and entirely for them. This unbridled search for the truth, and the potential you’ll discover within yourself, is Bold.

I'd just been arrested for felony grand theft after a few prior arrests for misdemeanors. I got expelled from college because I ditched most of my classes. I played video games for up to 18 hours at a time. I'd fallen into a pattern of self-destructive, out-of-control behavior. I didn't know how at the time, but I decided I had to make some serious changes. I began listening to personal development audio programs, and I liked the positive messages they shared. Soon I started over at a new university. After graduating I started a computer games business and ran it for 10 years. As I began to appreciate the amazing payoffs from investing in personal growth, I devoured many more books in the field and eventually read more than 1000 of them.
Paying It Forward I felt a strong desire to "pay it forward", so in 1999 I started writing articles to share what I learned with others. A Passion for Personal Growth Transitioning.
