128: Write Your Story

Teachers face some tough obstacles on their journey in the classroom. But those circumstances don’t define who they are as a person or a professional. Tune in to hear 4 steps for how you can write your story so that it has the impact and ending that you dream of.

Quotables

  • “Circumstances don’t make your life interesting. You make your life interesting. Write your story.” AMB
  • Do not let your circumstances take you down, turn you around or worse… eject you out of the game.
  • Your circumstance does not define you, you define you.
  • You have to become clear with what has happened and what is currently happening before you can even imagine a healthy path forward.
  • You can control what decisions you make and what behaviors you exhibit.
  • I didn’t want secrets. I wanted recipes for success.
