New Year’s Resolutions
The coming of a new year is the perfect time to take stock of your life, and decide whether it’s going where you want it to go. Chances are, you have room for improvement. (We all do) But how do you make it happen? 
- Write your new year resolutions down
Make a list of all the things you want, then ask yourself “Do I Really Want this?”
- Read your resolutions twice a day
Read them when you wake and again before you go to sleep, you can add new ones throughout the year
- Read your resolutions out loud!
Reading aloud impresses it more deeply in your mind
- Visualize achieving your resolutions as you read
The more detailed you can visualise, the better they work
- Make your resolutions positive
Positive resolutions work
- Make them about you only
You can’t resolve for other people, much as you may want to.
- Make them detailed
Like visualisations, the more detailed the easier they are achieved.
There is one more step…. Do it now, procrastination is the enemy….
Write them now!

Do good buildings make for better educated children?
Do good buildings make for better educated children?
Buildings can’t get children through Highers, or enthuse them with literature in the style of Robin Williams in Dead Poets Society. They can’t galvanise a school football team to achieve unimagined success. But they can make a huge difference to teachers’ abilities to bring such things about.
It’s relatively easy to show how much harm bad buildings can do. The wrong kinds of corridors can create havens for bullying. Tatty, dysfunctional structures can demotivate and demoralise. A leaking roof, undersized classrooms, or poor heating put direct obstacles in the way of a school’s success. Physical environment that shows no sign of care or pride can communicate the same lack to the people who use it. Read the rest of this entry »
All I Really Need To Know….
All I Really Need To Know…….
We’ve all heard the phrase “all I really need to know I learned in nursery”, right?
Do you agree? Or, do you feel “every day is a school day”, and lifelong learning is important? Do you recognise opportunities to learn every day?
