Well, ready or not, here it is. Been up since 4:00 refining my presentation (once I figured out the hotel wi-fi), trying to get it just right, trying to find the sweet spot between enough but not too much. Eventually, I will just run out of time, and I will just have to go with it. It. But what is it?
Funny in these moments how one feels, how I feel. I’m sure it’s just doubt seeping in, maybe some signs of impostor syndrome, but I am struck by the “who-am-I-to-say?” conundrum of it. Why is my work worthy? What do I have to say that they want to hear? Who am I a but a teacher from Cheney, Washington? The questions continue, the doubts hover, but I guess I should know that’s all a part of it. It happens. And when it does, we just have to go with it; we just have to let it happen. So, I’ll just let it happen. All I can do.
Happy Wednesday, all. I will let you know how “it” goes tomorrow.
Do. Reflect. Do Better.
Best of luck today! The fact that you’re thinking and thinking some more about how and what you are going to present usually means that the best of what you have will be shared. I am excited for you and I am thrilled that you have been asked to share your words of wisdom. I look forward to hearing how you feel your presentation goes. Remember, we are often our own worst critic! You’ve got this!
Thank you, Kristin. So appreciate your constant support. It went well yesterday. Thank you for cheering me on.
