@jordan3love my 88 year old mom is hoping you're not eating alone tonight. She wants me to invite you for dinner. Let me know when you can make it.

LEADER, you did not become a leader to be liked; you became a leader to LEAD! Cast the vision, communicate the mission, call people up to higher standards, and hold them accountable to carry out critical actions. Lead like your life depends on it because your students' lives do.

❤️ if you heard some of these "math talk" sentence starters in your school community this year.

There are people doing the work you’re doing, too. Don’t find yourself in competition with them — find community.

You can’t refute data with opinions. The best way to challenge evidence is with better evidence.

Confirmation bias is dismissing inconvenient facts. Critical thinking is questioning your beliefs.

The goal of learning is to pursue what's true, not defend your views.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Changing your mind is not a sign of losing integrity. It's often a mark of gaining wisdom.

Realizing you were wrong doesn't mean you lack judgment. It means you lacked knowledge.

Opinions are what you think today. Growth comes from staying open to revising your views tomorrow.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

It's better to be the wisest person in the room than the smartest.

People prove their intelligence by showing what they know. They reveal their wisdom by integrating what everyone knows.

Intelligence can be used to advance personal agendas. Wisdom guides groups to shared goals.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The goal of a great discussion isn't to land on the same page. It’s to explore different views.

Nods and smiles stroke your ego and close your mind. Thoughtful questions stoke your curiosity and stretch your thinking.

Consensus makes you comfortable. Dissent makes you smarter.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The highest compliment from someone who disagrees with you is not “You were right.” It’s “You made me think.”

Good arguments help us recognize complexity where we once saw simplicity.

The ultimate purpose of debate is not to produce consensus. It’s to promote critical thinking.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Compassion isn't a cause of burnout. It's a source of energy.

Data: Being kind to others can reduce cynicism. Being kind to yourself can lessen exhaustion. Kindness restores belonging, control, & confidence.

The times when you need a hand are often the best times to extend one.

The most underrated tool of persuasion is curiosity.

A natural response to disagreement is to attack what people think. A more inviting alternative is to be genuinely fascinated by how they think.

Curiosity is contagious. When advocacy closes minds, inquiry can open them.
