WHAT I WANT TEACHERS TO KNOW FROM THIS BOOK…

  • Focus on your career as a whole – the journey, not just the final destination. I want you to see the big picture.
  • Do more than just motivate your students. Don’t only show your students, but tell them how and why. Share with them the positive impact they have in this industry.
  • Remember this is a life-long journey for you personally. You will experience different seasons throughout your life. Some will be good and others not so good. Keep your head up, stay courageous and true to who you are and the difference you are making to those around you.
  • Change people for the better – don’t just challenge them to change. Get your tutu dirty and really show them how it’s done.
  • Continue to grow every day. Even if it’s only a small step towards your goals, take action every single day. However, remember that each of your goals is just one part of the whole journey.
