When Things Don't Go as Planned

As teachers, we’re natural planners, both professionally and personally. That’s why it gives us immense stress when aspects of our life aren’t planned, so can you imagine what it’s like when things don’t go as you planned them? That brings us to a whole new level of stress. But what if that unplanned moment brought you clarity? As crazy as that might be, it’s true! I believe that the gifts we need in life are actually revealed when things don’t go as we planned. I have my own personal experience with embracing the unexpected that I'm sharing with you, along with how this idea applies to you and your classroom right now.
