Reflection:
With the demands of family, work and challenging course work for my doctoral program, I was reminded of the large elephant
I often make the mistake of focusing on the big goals and lose sight of the small ones that lead me there. As I grow as a person, mother, daughter, student and educator I appreciate the feedback and support of family, friends and colleagues.
How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. We have all heard it before, but we fail to apply it to our personal lives. This week I was told by a friend to enjoy the bites along the way.
I really needed to hear this, and I will dip mine in chocolate.
Any other advice is welcomed.
This message was especially written for my two AMAZING daughters. I love you and thank you for being my cheerleaders.
