Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.

For my 6th Birthday, I received a Toro Power Drive Mower.

WHY? I wanted to mow lawns with my Dad. I was excited to earn money like him, and he made sure that I was able to use it safely by modifying it, so the controls were manageable as a 6-year-old.

WHAT I LEARNED? You work to serve others to make money, and you actually feel valued with the exchange. The exchange of not only money but of a smile and feedback of a job well done.
