Bill Parcells said, "Losers assemble in little groups and complain about the coaches and the players in other little groups."
Complaining only reinforces the negative.
• It's unproductive.
• It's distracting.
• It's stressful.
How to combat complaining:
In middle and high school, asking students to struggle with key concepts before teaching the correct solutions is highly effective. But use the tactic surgically to avoid too much frustration.
Once a teacher, you can never resist an opportunity to support student misconceptions. There’s evidence of student learning happening @KirkpatrickFWTX. Kudos Principal Bartolotta and team on the work accomplished thus far!
"Leaders Eat Last" emphasizes that leadership is not just about getting results, but also about prioritizing the well-being and personal growth of those you lead.
The book "Leaders Eat Last" written by Simon Sinek talks about leadership and offers some valuable lessons.
Some of the key lessons learned from the book are:
1. Leaders should put their people first: Good leaders prioritize the well-being of their employees, and they understand that it is their responsibility to create a work environment that feels safe, secure, and inclusive.
2. Trust is crucial: Strong relationships require mutual trust and respect. Leaders who prioritize the needs of their employees and cultivate trust are more likely to build a loyal and committed team.
3. Create a sense of belonging: People need to feel that they are part of something bigger than themselves. Leaders who create an environment where their team members feel valued and respected foster a strong sense of belonging.
4. Invest in your people: Leaders who invest in the growth and development of their employees, both personally and professionally, are more likely to have a loyal and committed team.
5. Good leaders inspire action: Leaders who set a good example themselves are more likely to inspire their team members to take action and become leaders in their own right.

EXPECT EXCELLENCE
“Every staff member must expect excellence of one another and, most importantly, of their students. It is my belief that all kids, regardless of race, socio-economic class, ethnicity, sexual orientation, perceived ability, attitude, etc., should be held to the highest standard for learning when it comes to their academics and/or their behavior.
By not holding all students to a high standard, we are saying we don’t believe you are able to learn or act appropriately, or we don’t care whether you do.
Why would we accept anything but our students’ best?”
