Do you think ‘hibernation’ is a valid reason to an employer of why I wish to do nothing between now and March? If not, why?

[Gavin Dykes @gavindk]

@mhdksafa Hello. Easy to say perhaps, but when you can, be ok - that way you help other people...which I hope in turn helps you.

[Gavin Dykes @gavindk]

We're too eager to bet on people who overestimate themselves—and too hesitant to invest in those who underestimate themselves.

It's easier to build up confidence than to tear down arrogance.

The people with the most potential are the ones who know they have a lot to learn.

[Education Policy Institute @EduPolicyInst]

Sir Kevan Collins says it's the whole child & the whole learning experience that matters.

The recovery is the recovery of childhood, not just education.

Our system and particularly the accountability of our system does not capture that.

Don't confuse being a fast talker with being a deep thinker. Speaking quickly signals confidence, not complexity.

Don't mistake volume for expertise. Speaking loudly reflects conviction, not credibility.

Sometimes the best ideas come from the least assertive voice in the room.

@SusanDouglas70 'Amelie' came to mind...full of gentle jolliness. Hope you find your own good cheer returns rapidly and like Amelie you happily navigate everything...

The longer I work in psychiatry

The more I realise that childhood abuse & neglect are some of the most harmful factors on peoples' mental health, both short & long term...
