STAY PASSIONATE, POSITIVE AND ENTHUSIASTIC!

So many people tell me that they find it hard to manage the stress and the pressure and ask how I manage to stay so passionate, so positive and so enthusiastic. It's easy if you know how and if you have the right attitude and the right tools and strategies to manage the DfE, OFSTED and all the other XXXX.


The tools are...
  • get a to do list, 
  • learn to say "no", 
  • ask for help when you need it, 
  • set realistic and achievable goals,
  • take more breaks from your work,
  • get away from your desk and go for a walk,
  • be positive, 
  • lighten up, 
  • smile more,
  • laugh a much as you can,
  • don't waste time on the small stuff,
  • don't worry about the things you just can't change,
  • get more sleep,
  • phone a friend,
  • find mentors, coaches and people to talk to,
  • spend time with optimistic people,
  • spend time with people with a positive attitude to work and life.

Try just these for a while and see what happens!
