"The most effective way to do it, is to do it." - Amelia Earhart If you want to achieve great things, flip the traditional model on its head: • Old Way: Learn —> Do • New Way: Do —> Learn Just get started. - @SahilBloom in The Curiosity Chronicle
I have fallen in love with this poem. My husband lives this way. #IAmStillScaredOfSpiders

Many “best practices” were created for a world that no longer exists. In the face of change, the routines that once moved you forward often become the ruts that hold you back. No practice is ever perfect. The day you stop being open to improving is the day you start stagnating.

What do other people deserve? Perhaps it’s related to what you think you deserve: Kindness. Dignity. A chance to speak up. A fair shot at achievement. The benefit of the doubt. PS today is Juneteenth. seths.blog/2021/06/what-do-o… #dignity #respect #kindness

Feedback is vital to create change. I always joke that I’m confetti & hugs but I like to keep it 100%. Through my learning as an educator/therapist, I realize even more so it’s not just about feedback-it’s about effective feedback that will move people forward. @cultofpedagogy
