 It has been three days since I attended this conference. I wanted to post earlier but did not have the link to edit this blog; hence, I waited until now. I am grateful for this conference, even if they did not provide me with lunch, haha. I am grateful for the learning and experience gained.

Thankfully I cleared my HOD interview. I was feeling so uneasy after the interview and the parting remarks that Supt gave me. I'll take her advice on that. Thank you and finally I can move on in my career. Wonderful.

Today, my Principal offered to help me prepare for my upcoming interview on a Saturday. I am really grateful to have such a boss and friend. Thank you. 

 Today is day 2, not really, as I skipped a day but still remembered that I had to work on this. I was pretty upset by my students today, but I am thankful it was not that bad. I will work on them to help them change. Thank you also for the small wins.

  This is day 1 of 100 days of gratitude. Today, a colleague offered to ride me to a crucial interview the following Monday. I am grateful for the offer and took it up gladly. Today is day 1, not one day. Thank you. As I have greatly benefitted from writing 100 days of gratitude, I have started another run of this thankful journey.

It has been a long while since I recorded anything here. This has been a very hectic yet fruitful week as I completed the first week of MLS. Tony Robbins' quote, "Progress is happiness", has been very real to me here. I experienced growth due to the stimulating lectures I had and the thinking about thinking I was led to do. Here are some of my reflections. As these are only coherent to me, please do not force yourself to make sense, as it would not be unless you experienced what I went through. Reflection for Day 2 1N: Examining our roles from the perspectives of the system level and the challenges at the ground level helps us to appreciate the different realities. We must have the courage to understand intentions (strategic alignment) and implement them on the ground (tactical empowerment). 2N: Embracing change. If change is the only constant, then find the constant in change. 1Q: Meta-cognition. If we constantly think about our thinking, would that make us more fearful
