Relationships are about long term trust - not short term success.
The statement above has a powerful message. This is what I believe and how I try to conduct myself in all areas of life; personal, professional, educational. It seems to lie closely to the idea that people are more important than things.
I care about the long-term success of my students - to help them develop habits and resources that will serve them in their future.
I care about the long-term outcome of my clients' projects - that the design, materials, and selections are still beautiful and functional years later.
I care about the relationships in my life; with friends, colleagues, and family. Really, what could be more important? I continue in friendships and associations with people I have known for as long as forty years, and family I've known all my life - and they are special, priceless, immeasurable in importance to me. And, I am grateful for their presence over the long-term in my life.
