Life is too short, so let's all go and achieve our dreams and wishes
I was speaking to a delivery driver today and after chatting for a few minutes he noticed our spare driving school car. He said he had always wanted to become a driving instructor, however he had never acted upon this dream and said it would never happen now as he was too old.
It suddenly struck me how many of us let time go by and not fulfill dreams and wishes. I explained to my new driver friend that you are never to old to retrain and grasp those dreams and make them a reality. I expressed my dismay when I suddenly realized that he was younger than me, does that make me old? No! I am young at heart and I don’t think that a young 50 year old is old and would be past making things happen, let alone my new 40 year old driver friend.
To become a driving instructor is a wish many people do not act upon as they do not know how to go about things, or where to go for a friendly chat about the industry.
Years a go when I learnt to drive, a driving instructor was an ordinary retired man who wanted to earn a bit more money. Qualifications never came into it as far as I am aware.
Now driving instructors are a professional body and have to go through 3 exams to enable to become a fully licenced driving instructor. These exams are run by the DVSA. When you are qualified you are retested every 2-4years to make sure you are still on the ball so to speak and teach a lesson competently and in the manner the Government wants to see. Quite right too!
Gone are the days when an instructor taught the lady down the road just for a little bit of pin money.
These days you have to think of a driving instructor as a college teacher teaching you a skill for the rest of your life and the independence it gives is immeasurable. Think of the driving school instructor as being as qualified as a teacher with a portable classroom (the driving school car).
You can build a career out of it, progressing into many different fields.
Being a driving instructor is a fulfilling, satisfying and challenging profession. You can work however many hours you would like in a working week, juggle family life and commitments however you want, and when you get that bonus feeling when your pupil has passed their driving test knowing you have been the one to help them to achieve that independence in their life. It makes your heart sing.
Don’t let your dreams and wishes pass you buy, act upon them even if it is just finding out information, you’ve made a start. Whatever those dreams or wishes are.
