Iโve stopped having bad days.
Itโs a change of mindset and it changed my life.
You donโt have to have bad days anymore either.
You can just have days. ๐ผ

An ex-student reaching out to say how much you impacted their life?
Savour it.
Relish it.
Splash about in it.
Moments of meaningful connection are precious reminders of why we teach. ๐๐ผ

How much of your life is spent teaching or thinking about teaching?
How much of your life isn't really yours?
It doesn't have to be that way.
Learn to live, all day every day. ๐ผ

Wellbeing is a way of life and a state of mind.
To achieve it, you need to think less and live more.
And in a profession like teaching, where we literally spend all day thinking, that can be tough. ๐ผ

Most days, I enjoy teaching.
But every day I enjoy my life.
That's balance, right there. ๐ผ

If youโre overwhelmed with anxiety, youโre not alone.
Just remember that your anxiety only exists within you.
And if you observe it, you diminish it.
Youโve got this.

Authentic voices shape minds.
Stay true to the values you want to model:
Honesty
Empathy
Patience
Your students learn more from you than you think.
So teach them how to live. ๐ผ

I love giving back to my school community.
But some days, some weeks, I just donโt feel like I have the capacity.
So maybe Iโll just make someone a cup of tea.
The little acts all add up. ๐ผ

Contributing to your school community doesn't always mean running an activity or washing up after a staff meeting.
It can mean a reassuring smile.
A patient response when you're tired.
A refusal to be cynical. ๐ผ

Teaching:
Easy? No.
Worth it? Absolutely.
You believe wholeheartedly in nurturing potential โ just don't forget to nurture your own in the process. ๐ผ

Maybe I can't change the system, but I can change a life.
So I try to stay focused on what I can control - building connections and creating safe spaces to learn.
And I guess that changes the systems those kids will go and makeโฆ ๐ผ
