The Ever-Growing To-Do List

Do you have a long to-do list?  What's on it?  Laundry.  Organizing your pantry.  Rearranging your furniture.  Tending to your garden.  Starting a blog.  Creating a business plan.  Changing careers.

There are so many things we want to do.  So many dreams.  So many untapped futures.    

Have you ever wanted to exercise?  The process of getting ready to exercise is dreadful!  You can think of 1,000 reasons why you shouldn't.  I mean, your to-do list is ever-growing.  BUT!!  If you just do it!  Just get up and go exercise.  You know you'll feel so much better.   You'll have energy and your endorphins will be raging!  

The same goes for teaching.

You want to try a new classroom management strategy.  You want to become a teacher leader in your school.  You want a cute, Pinterest-worthy classroom.  You want to become a National Board Certified Teacher.  You want to go to grad school.  You want to get an admin license.  

You want to start a Podcast for teaching.  You want to change the way students interact with each other in the classroom.  You want to lead a book study.  You want to help math teachers become better math teachers.  You want to increase students' test scores while upholding your values of teaching conceptually.  You want to make a name for yourself in the math education world.  You want to become better.

Be better.  Do the work.

Do it scared.  Do it nervous.  Do it shaking in your boots!  In the end, you'll be glad you did!

Just know that there is a need in this world that can only be met by what's inside of you.


Until next time,
