Aren't "To Do" lists supposed to get shorter as the days pass? Mine doesn't. It keeps growing and growing and growing...
Today was pretty crazy at work. I had 4 meetings, grades due in the morning, people observing me, lesson plans to write, presentations for trainings to get prepared for, power periods to start, e-mail to send out, paper to copy, lists to create, etc. Once I think I am able to cross something off my list, I have to turn around and add two more things. I don't think I would have it any other way though. I am the type that needs to stay busy. I am always the most productive when I have 20 things on my plate. When it is only 2 or 3 things, they never seem to get done...
Needless to say though, I needed a little "break" from the day when I got home from work. So, I went on the internet to try and find a quote to give me the boost I needed. This is what I found...
“When you love people and have the desire to make a profound, positive impact
upon the world, then will you have accomplished the meaning to live.”
This quote is very powerful to me. It helps remind me why I started teaching in the first place. I live to inspire and make an impact on my student's lives. That is why I work so hard....no other reason is as great as that.
