I read this over the weekend...

"The highest compliment from someone who disagrees with me is not 'you were right'"...

It's 'you made me think'.

Good arguments help me recognize complexity where I once saw simplicity.  They help me problem-solve by gaining perspective and understanding.

Debate and dissonance are central to continuous improvement."

I will let my words pass through three gates:
1) Is it true?
2) Is it necessary?
3) Is it Kind?

I just finished reading the book "Why Do So Many Incompetent Men Become Leaders" and I'm compared those key ideas with the books "Nine Lies About Work" and "Leading from the Outside." Taken altogether, this is reshaping how I define leadership, how I lead, and what it means to co-lead in this incredibly complex work we do as educators.

At the beginning of the pandemic, I conducted a virtual session with Brandi & Susan for teachers on self-care. Here are a few of the highlights from my time with teachers that day.

Think about things that bring you joy- little things, big things- things that you are truly grateful for. Things like: I feel so blessed to have woken up this morning, I’m so glad I have a job where I can make a difference, I love that I have a roof over my head. No matter where you are in your life at this moment, there is always something good if you dig deep enough. Maybe it’s the coffee mixed with the delicious vanilla caramel creamer you had before you left for work this morning or the friend who called you out of the blue on your way in, or maybe just the thought of someone you may call or text later to let them know you were thinking of them.

All of these things can have a tremendous impact on HOW YOU FEEL- minute by minute, day by day. Even when times are tough, thinking positive and having an attitude of gratitude can change your mind, body, and soul.

We all become what we think about! Having an attitude of gratitude is the highest way of thinking because it forces us to be sensitive to each other’s needs and to be more aware of those we surround ourselves with. The more gratitude you EXPRESS, the more gratitude you HAVE!!!

Have a fantastic week friends!
🤗 Shari

So today I was talking with another consultant on how to crop a picture into a shape. Not sure everyone knows how to do that or ever thought of it to add a nice feature to a presentation. Just a thought.

I am not a super confident person. Like many, I question if I am even doing a good job, but a couple of quotes I have revisits recently helps me put things into perspective.
If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original!
AND
Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark, professionals built the Titanic.

These quotes let me know that my flaws allow me to learn and grow. I am going to lean into them as they are the guides to tell me what's next!

I will be intentional about fighting the idea of being "good". I am exploring more ways to be "great".

I will be more intentional with my calendar this week and going forward. Since we are working from a remote location, I want to ensure that my calendar gives a true picture of my day and how I support LEAs.

I will not let a successful event cause my energy to peak and fade. I will use that energy to springboard into the next things…

I can connect with the speaker on so many levels! I'm that domino that speaks bluntly with love and kindness. 😁

We visited the Dallas Farmer's Market this past weekend and I met a Ukrainian woman whose mother is a medic in the war against Russia. Hearing her speak and express her thoughts was very moving. We purchased items meant to fundraise and help those fighting for their country in Ukraine. Consider donating! CookingBorscht.com

"Fear can have a concrete power of keeping us from saying and doing the things that are our purpose."  I am not going to let fear dictate my choices and my purpose.

I endeavor to embrace the awkwardness of my own communication... may it be 1) soft and gentle, 2) clear and sharp, and 3) open to another idea (or two... or three 😎)
