For this month’s life skill, career/money management, the following words by Martin Luther King Jr. offer a clear mantle for living our core values both professionally and personally. You will then be a better doctor, better lawyer, better teacher, better husband, wife, father mother.
“Whatever career you may choose for yourself – doctor, lawyer, teacher – let me propose an avocation to be pursued along with it. … Make a career of humanity. Commit yourself to the noble struggle for human rights. You will make a greater person of yourself, a greater nation of your country and a finer world to live in.”
King also declared, “… It will enrich your spirit as nothing else possibly can. It will give you that rare sense of nobility that can only spring from love and selflessly helping your fellow man.”
