Resolutions for Teachers (pt.3)

Hello everyone! 2024 is here and we are keeping the inspiration coming! Today marks the 3rd day in a row where we are looking at our past so that we can move forward. Re-energizing. Re-focusing. Remembering who we are and why we do the things we do—why we push to be better every single day. This one hits on a lot of levels for me personally, so I hope it does for you, too. Covid was here and very real. Times were changing. But it was time to check fear at the door and face the new world... whatever that was. Enjoy, and thank you for those who are listening and sharing these episodes. Let's keep pushing forward to the 2024 resolutions coming later this week!   FROM THE ORIGINAL EPISODE:  Hello everyone! For the last few years, I have made new year resolutions for teachers episodes. I find it a great way to reset, refocus, and share some ideas with you all, one to one. It helps me stay focused, and many of you have reached out to say you appreciate these as well. 2020 resolutions can be found here.  2021 resolutions can be found here.  This year, it seems like we have all at once, much of the same and more chaos all at once. What’s the solution to it? How do we manage so much of what we can’t control with what we want and need to get done? What should we focus on as educators? I have some thoughts. Let me know if you agree or disagree. 2022 resolutions for teachers: Check fear at the door. We can no longer make decisions based on fear.  Fear of Covid  Fear of change  Fear of failure Fear of judgment Fear of not fitting in Fear of Sundays Re-align with yourself and understand yourself.  Humanize how you interact with others in your class, school, and community at large. Fight for what you believe is right, but do it within reason and evidence.   BONUS: Check out our top 10 most downloaded episodes of 2021 here!
