@plcEvangelist Nice and strength are not opposing characteristics. I would say to be both and have a system designed to reinforce expectations, boundaries, and accountability. Thinking about school culture only in terms of a leader’s personal characteristics is egotistical and limiting.

You have permission to rest. You are not responsible for fixing everything that is broken. You do not have to try to make everyone happy. For now, take time for you. It's time to replenish.
The biggest lesson I’ve learned this year is not to force anything; conversations, friendships, relationships, attention, love. Anything forced is just not worth fighting for. Whatever flows, flows, what crashes, crashes. It is what it is.⠀

This surprise gift made my Tuesday. 😍I am slightly obsessed with Ted Lasso… maybe made it a whole theme for a slides presentation … now to find my mystery gifter! 🤔
