What's available here?

Something to write about or think about today:

Is love available here?

I was listening to the Right Brained Business Summit last night, and the guest Jen Lee was interviewing Mark Silver.  It was so powerful when I heard him say this.  Powerful in an internal shift sort of way.  It was also reassuring to me that I really am on the right path.  

It made me wonder why that isn't a question we are asking when educating children.  This gave me pause.

I also want brave teachers to have a place where love is available to you.  I hope Brave Teachers allows you to feel some love.

I wonder what your thoughts are on this topic.  I'd be honored if you would share here.


I'm about to release The Grateful Teacher Adventure Kit to everyone on the Brave Teacher Community.  Join us HERE for the adventure kit and other updates and courage and strength.

Gratitude

I found this great poem today and wanted to share it with you:

Be Thankful

Be thankful that you don’t already have everything you desire,
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don’t know something
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.

Be thankful for the difficult times.
During those times you grow.

Be thankful for your limitations
Because they give you opportunities for improvement.

Be thankful for each new challenge
Because it will build your strength and character.

Be thankful for your mistakes
They will teach you valuable lessons.

Be thankful when you’re tired and weary
Because it means you’ve made a difference.

It is easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are
also thankful for the setbacks.

GRATITUDE can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles
and they can become your blessings.

Be Patient

Here's a little self care tip just for you:

Practice patience with yourself.

It's ok if you don't have everything done.  It's ok to just rest.  It's ok to ask for help before you get to the end of your rope.  It's ok to feel overwhelmed or uncertain or fearful.  Be patient with yourself.  Quiet the voice inside that wants you to rush or have everything done or be super human.  You are worthy of patience.

Enchant

Something to write or think about
:

Where and how are you being enchanted?
Where and how are you being enchanting?

It's easy to feel tired, overwhelmed, undervalued, and defeated.  One way to escape this trap is a subtle shift in thinking.  Just look around your day for magic moments.  Sometimes I can't find those at school. Sometimes I have to look really hard.  When I'm not seeing it I ask myself how I can start creating it for other people--my family, my students, my coworkers, my online community.  I'm not sure what it is, but giving something good to others often invites something good into my life, too.  I hope you'll give it a try!


Pssst!  I have a secret, and I want you to be the first to know.  In just about 3 weeks there's going to be an amazing Spring Fling--right here at Brave Teachers--give aways, freebies, inspiration, and new cool tools.  If you want to be the first in the know, sign up here.

Here is an affirmation for today:

I am brave and strong.
I remember this today and everyday.
I am brave.
I am strong.

If you've had an especially tough day (or week or month or year) please take this to heart.  You have so much courage and strength than you even know.

I few weeks (months) ago I was hearing a good amount of buzz at some of my favorite blogs and websites about a new online magazine, Sprout.

When I finally checked it out I immediately bought the current issue!  I showed a few pages of the colorful and creative pdf to my husband.  He said, "I see why you like this.  It's so you."  
It's gorgeous and creative.  It feels like an inspiring and encourage balm for a brave heart.

I like it so much that I decided to become an affiliate.  That means if you follow my link from here to there and decide to buy any of the current or previous issues, I will earn a little moolah!

A blessing for us all today:

May we release stretching and striving.
May we learn how to reach for what we want and need.
May we know that this is a journey to true satisfaction.



Oh, I'm sad to admit I'm still stretching and striving--sometimes for things I neither want nor need.  I feel like I'm in that spot right now, and I say gently to myself that I at least recognize my discomfort with it.  This is forward for me.

I found this photo of a corner of a vision board I made last summer.  It brought me back to my vision for the best year ever.  I want to just reach out each day with open hands and an open heart for what my life has in store for me. Anyone want to join me?

Be Freshly Inspired

Here is an idea for thinking or writing:

What is inspiring you these days?
What fresh ideas do you see?
How are you inspiring fresh ideas?

This can be a tough time of year.  It's that late winter blah that gets me every year.  This is a great time to go on a little adventure to a museum or special place that speaks to you.  Let yourself see with fresh eyes and be freshly inspired.



Pssst!  I haven't taken down the I Heart Brave Teachers Coaching Deals, because I can take another client.  
Are you that Brave Teacher?  Do you want to move forward?  Or move in another direction?  If this is your time, contact me.
