Ask yourself, “Is it truly essential? If its not a firm yes, then it must be a firm no.” Doesn’t that make your decision easier. Thank you @GregoryMcKeown !
I am truly inspired and energized by @thetimmcgraw book Grit and Grace. Maybe its my past Nashville life and relatability, or the dormant #TRUMAV in me. Like he says, “If I want to sing about heartbreak and suffering, I can sing about it, but I don’t have to live in it”.
These last days of the school year are not the same without my student family at WMS! Goodluck in your endeavors and enjoy the summer. See you soon! @WMSTimberwolves#WEAREWILDWOOD

We have left the old world behind and we can never get back.
But the future can be full of what actually matters.
@GregoryMcKeown The opportunity to take a new perspective in life / the ridiculous amount my screentime has increased. Its taking some time to figure out the essentials.
I can’t express enough the importance of getting kids out during these virtual learning days. Please don’t forget to take advantage of real-world experiences and create some memories along the way. Now is the time to learn more about life than any book or program can teach.
If your kids or students are bored, or need a screen break remember JB Priestley:
“To show a child what has once delighted you, to find the child's delight added to your own, so that there is now a double delight seen in the glow of trust and affection, this is happiness.”
It is easy to look at what is going wrong, at weaknesses, at problems.
There is a place for that. We need to face reality. But that means seeing what's going right, what strengths you see, what opportunity is unseen.
Ask this question again and again: What is going right?
