Have you ever been told that you’re wasting your time when doing something you believe in, like making the effort to create a beautiful classroom or working really hard with a challenging student that no one else wants to make time for? Your standards are everything, they determine what kind of person you are - you are what you do!
In today's episode I share more personal stories with how I've had to battle maintaining high standards when working with others who refuse to raise theirs, and the challenges that comes with that.
You'll learn:
✒️ why it's important to maintain high standards
✒️ what to do when you're working with people who try to bring you down
✒️ how to stand tall and always do what you believe is right
