My first job as a teacher, I hated walking into work and dealing with the adminstration. Every single week, a different theme to dress up:cowboy, halloween, favorite book...wtf. All I wanted to do was teach, it sounds crazy but working ina school with a highly involved PTA can make it difficult.
After sitting in my class passing out cupcakes to 13 year old children, one of them started complaining about getting a chocolate cupcake and it was at that moment..the I realized...yo wtf and I doing here?
I got my bag and walked out of that prep school to work in one of the most underpriviledge schools in my district. A few years later I was nominated for a national teaching award...feel free to look me up.
The point, follow your dreams...if it doesnt involved cupcakes and screaming children run the fuck out.
Great and inspiring story here!
I'm so happy many people felt inspired to share their own experiences in the comment section. What a nice thread full of powerful real life situations!
Congrats on your bravery and the award. We need to do what we love in order to reveal our true power and become superstars :-)
