165. How Naming What Matters Most Can Change the Rest of Your School Year

If you’ve been wondering where your “new year, new you” pep talk was, well you’re getting it in this episode! I love taking the opportunity to reflect, plan, dream, and set goals all year, but especially at the start of the new year. And while I usually have a list of things you can do to start the year off on the right track, this year I’m sharing ONE specific new year challenge. This challenge has the power to transform how the rest of your school year goes. Are you ready for it? It’s naming what matters most. This concept, introduced by Kendra Adachi, has become a cornerstone of how I approach both my personal and professional life. I’ve touched on this idea before on the podcast, but it’s so powerful that I keep coming back to it. In today’s episode, I’m diving deeper into why this principle is so crucial for achieving work-life balance and how you can apply it in your own life.➡️ Show Notes: https://itsnotrocketscienceclassroom.com/episode165 Resources Mentioned:Core Values Mini-CourseVirtual PD Course BundleKendra Adachi’s book, The PLAN: Manage Your Time Like a Lazy GeniusThe Lazy Genius CollectiveThe Lazy Genius PodcastDownload your FREE Classroom Reset Challenge.Send me a DM on Instagram: @its.not.rocket.scienceSend me an email: [email protected]  Follow, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts.Related Episodes:Episode 164, My Top Tips for Kicking Off a New SemesterEpisode 137, Work/Life Balance as a Mom and and AP Teacher With Guest Kimberly LearyEpisode 57, Living and Working in Your Current Season Episode 55, Goal Setting For the New Year – A Different Approach
