I am uncomfortable. And I couldn’t be happier. For I am learning. Actually, I am unlearning, and that is the source of my discomfort. Willingham’s book Why Don’t Students Like School? has knocked me off course, challenging my thinking, and I am a bit lost right now. But really that’s the Project 180 goal. To turn myself upside down, so I can find my feet again, as I chase my next better.
So, what’s got me off my feet? Too much–way too much–to dig into right now. And, to be honest, I am not done digging. There’s a fair amount of backtracking to do as I will have to go back and read and reread some sections to fully find my feet. But I have the energy to do so, and that’s a bit of a rarity for me at this time of year. So, I am going to embrace my disCOMFORT. It’s where I learn. It’s where I grow.
I will share when I reach some greater clarity. Happy Thursday.
Do. Reflect. Do Better.
