  • Take the Next Right Action
    On episode #415 we discuss how we can overcome our obstacles by taking the next right actions.
    We often default to the attitude of "Just tell me what to do," but this will not help us strengthen our leadership in our classrooms. This attitude attempts to shirk the responsibility of thinking critically and making decisions.
    In terms of setting goals, we need to take the next right action by setting long-term goals which are internal goals that focus on WHO we want to be. And our short-term goals should only be in 24 hour segments so don't look too far ahead and stumble.
    Rather than employing management techniques and following a script, we need to show leadership by surveying our situations and taking the next right action. This will help us do the right things to make a difference in the lives of our students.
