Are you living the life you thought you signed up for when you became a teacher?

After my first 5 years in the classroom, I realized that I wasn’t.

I thought things would be different after those first 5 years.

I thought I wouldn’t be spending so much time on schoolwork outside of school hours.

I thought my evenings would be free to do what I wanted.

I thought I’d be able to enjoy my weekends without thinking about school.

I thought I’d be eating healthy, exercising regularly, and living the “good life.”

Instead, I was stress eating all the time, not getting enough sleep, lugging my gigantic school bag home every day (even over the weekend), but feeling too exhausted to be productive outside of school.

Sure, there was A LOT on my plate as an elementary teacher.

But my job wasn’t to blame for me not having my “perfect life” land in my lap.

Because hindsight is 20/20, I can look back now and see all the thoughts, feelings, and actions that created the life I didn’t want.
