change we can believe in... *smirk*

In a teacher workshop I attended years ago while fresh out of university, participants were asked to share the most disliked traits of teachers who had taught them in the past. The answers were not surprising; favoritism, unfairness, lack of punctuality, not mastering the subject matter, etc.

I wrote "lack of discipline" as I remembered past teachers who let students rule the class and as such, I didn't feel I learned anything out of these classes. I guess what I really meant was "Ineffectiveness".

However my intelligent friend answered, "Inconsistencies."
I couldn't agree more.

Inconsistencies in most cases result not in creativity but excuses. Most often they reflect a lack of preparation and thorough consideration, and consequently result in impulsive bad decisions, unreliable plans, lowered work quality, frustrations among many, and loss of trust.
