Inspired by my visit to the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville this past July. While not the Mother Church, hopefully to my students, it will be the Mother Classroom. Looking forward to the first day. @GTWizards1

When I was in high school, I was one of four students from my school selected to go and see him speak at a rally when he was running for president. Extraordinary experience for the four of us. RIP 41.

The next time you find yourself overthinking or worrying, stop yourself and take a deep breath. Look at something around you and notice what’s in the present moment. Look at the sky, a beautiful flower. Feel your heartbeat. Get out of your mind and immerse yourself in the moment.

3 things students need to hear from teachers: 1. “I believe in you.” 2. “You have a purpose.” 3. “How are you, really?”

Take some time to rest and recover. You don’t always have to be so busy, pushing yourself so hard. Step back and take care of yourself. Those moments of self-care will add value, energy, purpose, and creativity to everything you do. Find a healthy balance and enjoy your life.
