Self Help Radio 071320: Lessons

(Using a cheat sheet on a Self Help Radio lesson!  For shame!  Original image here.)

You're expecting me to start this with something like, "What have we learned?"  Sorry, not going to play your game.  I learned my lesson long ago about conforming to expectations.  It makes one well-liked, happy, & satisfied.  I mean, have you heard this show?

There certainly were a lot of lessons on today's show.  Although now that it's over, I can't think of a one.  Something probably about knowing oneself.  Maybe something about love?  I did what I always do, I dozed off while the lecturer was going on & on, just reading off the Powerpoint slide.  I did have nice dreams though.  I always had the best dreams sleeping in class.  & I woke so refreshed!  It makes one wish one could return to school.  To get better rest.

The lesson of all this is that Self Help Radio had a show this morning & you can listen to it now & anytime really at the Self Help Radio website.  You must remember your username (SHR) & password (selfhelp) to access the lesson.  It's only one lesson, though.  There's really not much the show has to teach you.  The syllabus is below.

Do not begin the test until you are told to do so.
