ASB Informal Membership Test

The following is the philosophy of Charles Schultz, the creator of the "Peanuts" comic strip. Much of what Schultz offers closely approximates the tenants and mission of the Society.

Spend a few minutes reviewing the following questions. If you fail, ASB membership most likely is not right for you. If you agree, you are already successful and we would welcome you to our membership...

Part I

1. Name the five wealthiest people in the world.

2. Name the last five Heisman trophy winners.

3. Name the last five winners of the Miss America.

4. Name ten people who have won the Nobel or Pulitzer Prize.

5. Name the last half dozen Academy Award winners for best actor and actress.

6. Name the last decade's worth of World Series winners.

How did you do?

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday. These are no second-rate achievers. They are the best in their fields. But the applause dies. Awards tarnish. Achievements are forgotten. Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners .

Part II

1. List a few teachers who aided your journey through school.

2. Name three friends who have helped you through a difficult time.

3. Name five peers who have taught you something worthwhile.

4. Think of a few people who have made you feel appreciated and special.

5. Think of those people that you enjoy sharing your time with.

Solutions
The people who make a difference in your life are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards. They are the ones that care .

Pass the idea of membership on to those people who make a difference in your life and to those who you would like to influence as well…
