Just one? My whole attitude has changed about going back to school. Instead of feeling sorry for myself that most of my friends are retired and doing whatever they want, I am looking at the upcoming school year as a chance to have some fun, to be less stressed than last year(my new schedule of five preps might be an inconvenience), and to make a difference in the lives of my students! My husband has noticed that I am a happier person!I have been more reflective and prayerful, and it feels good.
Remembering to pray and give thanks, count my blessings and do at least SOME of the ideas each day that were found in the videos we watched (ex: sing in the shower, forgive, say sorry, be kinder than necessary, remember b-days, don't nag....) just automatically puts me in a better mental state of mind which in turn benefits my family, and in a month my students & coworkers. A refocused mind is a re-energized mind, for sure.
