School Counselor at Bloomsdale Elementary! Striving to be the best counselor I can be, but at the end of the day it is all about faith, family, and friends!arowland54.wixsite.com/rowland Ste Genevieve, MOJoined November 2011
A company isn't a family. Parents don't fire their kids for low performance or furlough them in hard times.
A better vision for a workplace is a community—a place where people bond around shared values, feel valued as human beings, and have a voice in decisions that affect them.
Rewarding children for simply trying underestimates a child’s ability to learn and grow from experience, and can have a host of unintended consequences, often the exact opposite of what we had hoped to achieve.
The way we deal with our emotions shapes everything that matters: our actions, careers, relationships, workplaces, health and happiness.
These are NOT "soft skills."
You ≠ your job.
You are more than your job.
When we over-identify with work we're more likely to:
- get stuck when things are going poorly.
- struggle to see others' views.
- turn away from other important values in our life.
Instead of
"I AM a ___."
->
"I work as a ___."
Leaders, there are no "bad" emotions. All emotions are completely normal, shining a light on people's needs and values.
This is not the same as getting "stuck" in an emotion or letting it call the shots.
Being open to all emotions supports your team's agility and wellbeing.
Work provides far more than a meal ticket. It can give us a sense of identity and purpose, as well as a framework around which we organize our other activities and interests.
“People have said, “Don’t cry” to other people for years and years, and all it has ever meant is “I’m too uncomfortable when you show your feelings: Don’t cry.” I’d rather have them say, “Go ahead and cry. I’m here to be with you.”
Congratulations to the five finalists for the ASCA 2022 School Counselor of the Year! We will announce the 2022 School Counselor of the Year in late fall.
Meaning is about making a difference, not having an audience.
It's better to be valued by a few than to be known by many.
Your contribution is not the scope of your reach. It's the depth of your impact.
Your legacy is not how many footprints you leave. It's how long they last.
If you judge your worth by your achievements, you feel worthless whenever you fall short of a goal.
Stable self-confidence comes from learning to separate your performance from your self-esteem.
Excellence is a reflection of effort, skill, and luck—not your value as a person.
