Adulting is HARD! And no matter how long you've been at it, it doesn't get any easier.
One of the many distinctions between being an adult and an adolescent is all the decisions you have to make. That coupled with being a teacher and having 22 sets of eyes looking at you for guidance, there are a ridiculous amount of decisions that you make on any given day. It's exhausting to say the least.
While some decisions are no-brainers, there are absolutely decisions that take a little extra courage to make. It's the courage needed to take a leap of faith, to try something new, to go for something, or to change direction altogether.
When making decisions, there are no guarantees. There is no crystal ball to tell us that we are doing the right thing. There is no way to know how it will all work out. And here is the hard truth, it doesn't always work out.
Hindsight is 20/20. It's easy to look back and judge how you handled a situation, second guess a choice you made, or even occasionally realize what a bone-headed decision you made.
It's not about being perfect. It's not about having all the answers. It's not about knowing what to do all the time. Instead, focus on being proud of yourself for showing courage when the situation required it and owning and giving yourself grace during situations where perhaps stupidity crept in.
Wishing you a year where all your decisions are not hard decisions, but when they are, you have the courage to take the leap to make the next best, next right decision.
You've got this!
