In an effort to motivate teachers to stay positive in the new year, we were motivationally spoken to regarding the importance of maintaining your cool when the going gets tough with a kid, a parent, or a colleague. Most of this information is common sense, and refers to the basic need for people to be kind and compassionate in less than desirable situations. So naturally, as with most things like this, I sat glazed and spaced wondering when the new season of shows would start and which beverage I would quaff that evening. Until...the crown jewel of advice was given, a saying as cute and funny as it is actually applicable to life:
Nobody can drive you crazy unless you hand them the keys.
Words to live by, folks. Words to live by.
