Doesn't matter how far you've come, or how
far you've gone, the path to getting better never ends. #QuoteADay #Day266 #edchat #edu #ASCDL2L
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the path towards
always getting better. Besides becoming
a better educator and leader (which is always a work in progress), I’m
constantly trying to become a better person.
And, truth be told, it isn’t easy.
As humans, we struggle regularly with the “right thing to
do.” We try to put others first while
remembering that we need to take care of ourselves. We push to make everyone’s needs a priority,
without forgetting that not everything can be a priority at the same time. And, we do our best to make sure that the
impact we have on others is more positive than it is negative.
I would like to think that I’m an effective educator. But, I realize that I have miles and miles to
travel before I feel as if I’m as effective as I can be (and don’t tell myself
this, but, I don’t think I’ll ever get there).
Learning is a journey, just as life is. We embark on a path that we know we’ll never
get to the end of. And yet, during our
short time on that path, we must do whatever we can to soak up as much learning
as we can, and by the same token, pay that learning forward to others, so that
they might get a bit further down their respective pathways than we did ours.
