So Biden’s $15 minimum wage comes out to $31,200 a year for a 40 hour work week. The starting salary for a beginning teacher in Texas is $33,660. So a person working a minimum wage job will be making almost the same as a teacher with a college degree. Does this make any sense? 🤷♂️
Players: Be great without being high maintenance. Show up on time, wear the right stuff, be coachable, support your teammates & give 100% every time you play. High maintenance is hard. Coaches love low maintenance players who buy into the process. You’re what makes coaching fun!
Players: Average college players spend 3,000 hours on their game in 4 years. Only 4% of that is actual game play. You need mental & physical stamina, toughness & a willingness to work regardless of success or playing time. You have to love the process of what it takes to compete!
I don’t understand how some people can actually just straight up LIE with zero conviction?????
Sometimes I feel like I will never come out ahead in business simply because I’m not willing to lie to get what I want. But I guess in the end, I’d rather lose money than my integrity.
Body language screams. How you respond when a teammate drops a pass, when you get taken out of the game, when a call goes against you, or when you make a mistake speaks volumes about you as a competitor and as a teammate. Everyone knows how you feel before you say a word.
Parents: Let your kids be coached. Let them get used to coaches holding them accountable. If you save your children from discomfort, you often keep them from realizing their own strength & ability. Let them grow their character so they can become confident, independent adults.
Someone with broken english likely knows every single word that you know, but in a different language. They literally know tens of thousands of more words than you. Think about that the next time you question someone’s intelligence for struggling with the only language you know.
Don’t ask school leaders and teachers if they are happy to “have time off”. No, we are not happy and our hearts ache for our students. We want to be at school. We want to see our kids. We want to meet their needs. We want our normal back. #COVIDー19#PrincipalLife#BetterTogether
PSA for whoever needs to hear it: you need to be reeaalllyy really good to play at a competitive D3. Too many coaches saying their kid is D1/D2 and recruits passing on D3s for bad D2s.
if you ever think being an ed major is easy you can come plan my lessons, construct my edTPA and pass it, pass the foRt exam, attend seminar every week and then spend 40+ hours a week teaching and THEN come talk to me about it being “easy” 🙄
