I think one of the most important things I have learned about myself is that I do not know how to "chill" and "go with the flow." I am too uptight about every little thing. And I worry, worry, worry. No, I am not Jewish. But I am Italian and maybe that worrying thing is in my blood. It's kind of like you cannot be an Italian mama unless you know how to worry.
So I have made a big effort to just RELAX. And go with the flow. Life happens and I usually end up OK, so why have I been wasting so much precious energy and time being uptight and worrying?
I have learned that most of the best teachers at my school are the ones who just go with the flow. And the students love them! And the students are more open to learning in those classrooms. I'm learning....
I'm the same way Connie. I am finding the word "no" to be a bit easier these days since I have started rethinking some things in my life.
