If you’re more angry that a handful of 22 year old software engineers are writing code to uncover fraudulent government spending than at the people who are fraudulently spending your hard earned taxes, it’s time to do some soul searching
Growth doesn’t come from staying comfortable, it comes from facing the challenges meant to strengthen us. Every test is here to help you become stronger and who you are meant to be!
The culture of a school is created by everyone in the school. Walk in a school and see how the front office staff talks and interacts or the staff /teachers in the hallway. Yes, the admin influences it, but everyone is ultimately responsible for a positive school culture.
Do you think there are students in your school who go unnoticed, perhaps going through the day without being greeted, or hearing someone use their name in a positive way?
Urgently search for them. Refrain from allowing this to be tolerated in your space.

Praise Others! Instead of complaining about what others are doing wrong, focus on what they are doing right. Praise them and watch as they create more success. Of course, point out their mistakes so they can learn and grow, but make sure you give 3x as much praise as criticism.
Greatness isn’t achieved by worrying what everyone thinks of you. Don’t look outside. The praise, criticism, expectations; it’s all just noise. Look inside to your heart and soul and do your thing. Do it with love and create greatness from the inside out.
The words we speak matter. They help to shape the world around us. Speak words of encouragement, hope and truth to others (and yourself) today.
You matter. You are worth it. Your best days are ahead of you. Your purpose is greater than your challenges.
No matter what happens today, remember...
You might not be able to control all of yours circumstance but you can control how you respond to them.
Pause. Look for the good. Trust in a bigger plan. Respond instead of react.
