“I
prefer the errors of enthusiasm to the indifference of wisdom.”― Anatole France
This is a great quote. I know at
first blush it doesn’t make perfect sense, but there is an element of it that I
truly love.
Successful educators are risk takers…they
aren’t just super smart people. I know you are also super smart, but we
do the great things that we do because of passion….because of enthusiasm.
I love when teachers make mistakes based
on calculated risks that are due to enthusiasm. It is a great thing to
make these “errors of enthusiasm” because it means you care enough to try
something new….to step out of your comfort zone…to create more student
engagements based on your passion.
I love watching the growth of our
students…that is due to your passion and enthusiasm. Yes, you are wise,
smart, and knowledgeable….but more importantly you try things…you have freedom
to be creative to be you in the classroom. Please don’t ever lose that
passion….
Thank you for being enthusiastic…thank
you for being dynamic…thank you for caring for your kids!
Happy Monday!
