Teachers are leaders and like other leaders, they are known more by what they get others to do than by what they do themselves.

Others is a key word in here because it can mean so many people including colleagues, students, administration, and parents.

There are great teachers that just teach but until their students do something great the teacher is never recognized as a great teacher.

Its very true because how many people have the initiative to go out and learn things by themselves? teachers are kind of infamous because they are always remembered by their students and they probably want to be remembered well

A leader does not lead by 1, himsef/herself. A leader needs to have a group, more than one for 'leader' to make sense.

Getting students interactions is very important. What THEY do, sticks with them more that what they see YOU do.

I'm not sure I entirely agree with this. Certainly great leaders motivate others to action. Lead by example, great leaders must be a living whatever of whatever it is they advocate. That may be a lifetime of engaged learning, active learning...

The accomplishment is not in what you have done but in the relationships you have developed. Those relationships are the catalyst of accomplishments!

So now I don't feel as disappointed about not creating my own art; my creative energy goes to the classroom!
