20- Reframe Your Teacher Problems: Become the CEO of Your Classroom & Home (Part 1)
Being a teacher is a lot like being a CEO. Think about it. CEOs make 1000s of decisions every day. So do teachers. CEOs guide their teams to reach huge goals. Teachers guide their students to reach their highest potential. CEOs thrive when they know their businesses are making a difference in the world. Teachers thrive when they know they’re making an impact on their students’ lives. What’s the biggest difference between a CEO and a teacher? You might be tempted to say it’s the difference in salaries… but I’d like to suggest something else that’s even more important. CEOs operate with a vastly different mindset than a typical teacher when it comes to “problems.” In fact, the way CEOs think about problems is very different than how most people on the planet approach their problems. In this episode, and the next two episodes to come, we’re going to explore what a “CEO Mindset” looks like - and how adopting a few simple shifts in thinking can make a huge difference in your teacher life. In this episode, you’ll learn: What teachers’ biggest (hidden) Problem is when it comes to “problems” in the classroom and at home.
