And that's really difficult.
I struggle with that a great deal.
Humans do naturally often compare themselves to others.
And I think it's really helpful when we can hold up a mirror to our kids and say, hey,
It's kind of you versus you and look how far you've come.
Look at the things that we were talking about a year ago, a month ago, and look how magnificent you are.
Now, look how much you've blossomed and look how much more road you have ahead of you and how much more space there is to grow.
And so, these are great things to do, inventory our victories and remind ourselves like how incredible we are because so many of our kids are really service-minded.
Like they really do want to serve, they want to help, they want to connect and they get down when they feel like
they're not doing enough or the problems are so big.
And you're so right.
I think it's so important that we do that as adults.
I need that reminder.
Like I'm going to go forth today and keep that.
And it's important that we help our students do it all the time.
I think a big one is it's probably just sort of been omnipresent through everything that I've said, but it's focusing on strength, focusing on the interest, focusing on the feel goods and maybe trying to build a bit of a moat, fill the castle walls a little bit about a lot of the deficit based language, because just taking kind of like a case study, like I have a student on our very first meeting together.
I said, like, tell me what your day was like today.
He's like, well, I went to school.
The whole day sucked.
And then I met with like an ed therapist who was helping me work on things that I suck at.
