This was a saying from an old wise man - Og Mandino. He wrote several Books and was I believe an inspiration for people in the Sales industry, to help them to believe in themselves. With regard to this pearl of wisdom that I have heard some 15 years ago, I believe it must hold true. Everybody on this earth that you meet is here to teach you something. Whether they are an "angel" or a "demon" - they teach you another lesson in life. I pick up so many tips on life from the people I meet. They may be excellent mothers, or loyal friends, or organised people, or humble people, or have amazing self confidence, or are polite, or artistic, or musical or WHATEVER. My husband teaches me new lessons each day (whether small or large), my daughters teach me, my siblings teach me, babies teach me, mothers teach me, friends and relatives teach me and strangers teach me. But often I am not receptive. I need to be exposed to the lesson over and over again. That's why I am a student for the rest of my life.
