Three Things You Can Do to Turn a Mistake Into a Triumph

The topic of mistakes is vital to work-life balance for educators because thinking about or ruminating about them is one of the top ways we bring our work home. The work in paper form travels in the trunk of our car from school to home and back to school again. Then there is the mental work we bring home. You know when we can't focus and keep replaying what happened in our head, wishing we had said something different or done something differently? You can't sleep or wake up thinking and reliving what happened. We all make mistakes. The good news in this podcast is that you will learn three simple things that can help you leave work at work when you make a mistake. To make mistakes is the human experience and a school leader's best learning.
