Simple truth but an important reminder that goals and aspirations are pointless if unfueled by discipline and effort. Positive actions trump wishful thinking, and teachers have a unique role in getting this message across to students.

"Young people have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them" (James Baldwin). In other words, the ethos of a school is caught not taught. The lesson for us as educators? Modelling behaviour is far more impactful than merely preaching it 🎓😇🏫

Perfection paralysis is a common cause of procrastination. When caught up in getting things just right, you keep delaying action. To get rid of it:
☝Don’t think in all-or-nothing terms
☝Don’t set off on a race that you cannot win
☝Don’t view perfection as a measure of success
