Category: Life Questions (Page 2 of 6)

This is one of the first reflections I wrote, approximately three years ago now, for my previous site, mariasmind.com. As a high school English teacher, this time of year was probably the busiest: final assignments and exams, getting organized for summer school and September, final meetings and marks, and so much marking within a very short space of time.

Along with the bureaucratic stuff and supporting students, worried about final marks, it was also a time for reflection. What had gone well and what had not? Why? I tried to reach out for support and insights. This advice, to stop comparing myself to others, has been and continues to be a struggle, but I am working on it. Hopefully, something here connects to some aspect of your life. Please comment below.
