Recently I was reminded of this saying:- “give a man a fish you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”
The problem is, some people just want the fish! Not only is it a bad thing to do, giving a person a fish, it also encourages them to come back for more! Eventually all of those fish in the bottom of your boat are going to be given away.
Please don't give anyone a fish, they just keep coming back for more and more and more, with no intention of learning how to fish, why should they? You are fishing for them!
