Implemented SBG in two different Districts. Best part were the conversations about assessments between teachers and admin, transparency for parents and the focus on growth for ALL students.

Watched the changing of the guard at The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier today. Sacrifice and loyalty might be the two biggest virtues.

Don’t confuse being Stoic with not caring. Who else is willing to sacrifice as much as you, in the effort to be great?

What do we gain from the past? “If I won one tournament, I can do it again.” “If I lost 50 pounds once, I can do it again.” “If I survived that difficult time, I can do it again.” The past can tell us what we are capable of. It can NEVER tell us what we are incapable of.

The famous generals of war by and large were not hotheads. They were statesmen and strategists. They knew how to marshal resources, act deceptively when necessary, and above all, avoid rash, foolhardy behavior. If you want to look at poker as war, fine: but act accordingly.

To have an “invincible soul” as Marcus noted in his father, what does this mean? It means no want, craving or vice holds sway over our mind, body and spirit. It means we are indomitable to external forces. Be invincible to those things that would corrupt your focus. #notilt

“Hasten then to the end which thou hast before thee, and throwing away idle hopes, come to thy own aid, if thou carest at all for thyself, while it is in thy power.” —Marcus Aurelius from Meditations. It’s up to you and me to make our dreams come true. It’s not anyone else’s job

Pan-Asian restaurant at food court in Horseshoe. Worker named Mark thanked me for leaving a tip on my credit card transaction. He was the first in ten days to say “thank you”. I don’t know who to tag, but I told Mark I appreciate his gratitude. Please retweet if you can.
