@fox5dc So does this mean they were wrong or lying when they said the virus would die off in the heat?

[Techy_McCoy @MccoyTechy]

Summer goals: Update technology lessons, finish creating photography curriculum, look into funding for my classroom, write session proposal for METC 2021.

Are you ready WHS Class of 2020?

[Techy_McCoy @MccoyTechy]

@gerrybrooksprin It doesn't matter who you are, social media isn't the place to complain about your relationships, work or otherwise.

[Techy_McCoy @MccoyTechy]

@karareflects Very sorry for your loss.

We have to be careful that our own opinions about how to move forward in this time of stress does not cause irreparable damage to our relationships. Take time to try to understand the opinions of others, even when you disagree.

[Alexis Rockley @alexisrockley]

Your plans, creativity, energy, focus + motivation are on a YO-YO right now, b/c your brain believes you need to be EXTREMELY ADAPTIVE.

You will not be on this rollercoaster forever. Be patient with your brain.

Sincerely,

a positive psychology-certified coach + fellow human

SUDDENLY DON'T GIVE AF about future-based goals, projects, or dreams like you used to? That's because your brain knows being short-sighted is a safer way to cope right now.

[Alexis Rockley @alexisrockley]

Feeling CREATIVELY BLOCKED? That's because your brain has temporarily diverted all its creativity (aka ability to solve novel problems) to "how do I avoid dying?" while in a narrowed, slow burn, fight-or-flight state.

[Alexis Rockley @alexisrockley]

TIRED EASILY? That's because your brain is burning your energy 10x faster than usual.

CAN'T SEEM TO FOCUS? That's b/c your brain has temporarily shut down some functionality in your prefrontal cortex—the part that juggles complex tasks + planning— due to the stress response.

[Alexis Rockley @alexisrockley]

Let me be clear (a thread):

Those "all over the place" feelings you've been having? They are symptoms of stress, NOT personal failures of yours.

Do you feel FLAKEY + INCONSISTENT? That's b/c your brain doesn't know what news to brace for next, or what next month will hold.

[Techy_McCoy @MccoyTechy]

So I did this today.

@NicholasFerroni This may be attempted, but when the bottom line isn't what it should be budget wise, it will be abandoned.

[Techy_McCoy @MccoyTechy]

@karareflects I have to say it is nice to have time to do those other things that usually get put on that back burner.
