Open Mic

Where do I begin...we all have to much on our plate, but that is why we do what we do! I realized from last week that I can't get a bigger plate. We all can multi-task as teachers, coaches, parents etc...I for one have taken a new attitude towards all of this craziness. I am accepting it and learning how to balance and prioritize my to do list. With the help of your suggestions from last Saturday's class I am trying to "administratively" handle my teaching responsibilities in a more functional and effective way. Teaching is just like coaching and coaching is just like teaching. It is the off the filed out of the classroom "duties" that make difficult at times. These however should not derail us from the excitement of being a teacher/coach and or have us lose focus on what we really are doing for these young adults. So I say with the support of our families, professors and each other we will learn how to juggle without dropping the balls and still have fun making the crowd (our students) smile. How did this blog just turn into an editorial? In closing thanks for your suggestions during our small group activity last Saturday and looking forward to Monday's class (did I just say that?) Ha peace!

  2. Hi, Gary - good to hear that you are starting to clean the plate, so to speak. So much to do, so little time, and you are beginning to get a handle on all that - keep us posted as that is a pretty good challenge in and of itself.
