In this episode, inspired by Dr. Stephen R. Covey's first chapter of "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" I discuss the ONE paradigm shift that could transform our teaching. A paradigm shift isn't just a buzzword; it's a fundamental change in how we approach or understand a situation. 

➡️ Imagine, you have the same students, the same classroom, the same co-workers, and even the same teaching materials—but your perspective changes dramatically. That's the power of a paradigm shift.

Highlights of the episode include:

💛 how paradigms shape our experiences, reactions, and results
💛 one of the greatest paradigm shift in education in the last decade - growth mindset
💛 the most powerful paradigm shift to transform your relationships with all of the major players you encounter in your school day
💛 what if student behavior that triggers you is less of a "wall" and more of a "mirror"?

🎙️Listen along and challenge yourself to remember that not everyone has the skills you have - we're mostly just doing our best.
