MINDSET MASTERY THAT MOVES MOUNTAINS

MINDSET MASTERY THAT MOVES MOUNTAINS

Most of us are aware of the importance of having the right mindset for accomplishing our goals. To achieve our dreams, it's as simple as thinking positive thoughts and believing in yourself, right? Perhaps, but it's not always as easy as it might appear. As an educator and professional speaker, I've had the pleasure of working with thousands of highly motivated administrators, community leaders, parents and students, helping them to pursue their dreams. And, in that time, I've noticed that although a lot of people think they have the right mindset, many are unknowingly making some very common mistakes. Unchecked, they can derail goals. However, once they're transformed, that is where problems are solved. In this program, we engage in root cause analysis to uncover the mindset required to move mountains, improve performance and drive productivity.

    Fostering a growth mindset in students is a priority for most educators, but sometimes teachers themselves operate with a fixed mindset. No matter how old you are and no matter how good you are at your job, it's important to never stop growing and learning. Even the best teachers are constantly on the hunt for new ideas, new methods, and new ways of thinking to best serve their students. Sure, it might be easier to rest on one's laurels and those already finished lesson plans; but just as we encourage students to always push their learning further, teachers must be continuous learners. In fact, it's human nature to learn and grow. In this session, educators will be challenged to: love to learn, love to teach and love to increase, because teachers can only grow their students as far as they have grown themselves.

    GET ROOTED! GET PLANTED! GET GOING!

    Life is dynamic and constantly changing. It comes with its own unpredictability. Motivation and inspiration are needed to fuel the passion in youth by bringing out varying dormant skills, talents and dreams in them, creating opportunities and knowledge of the path they should follow. Having been adopted at 3 months old, diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) at 15 and kicked out of high school at 17, I am no stranger to adversity. As part of this heart-hitting presentation to youth, I intertwine my story of rejection and adversity to demonstrate that anything is possible for them, if only they believe. Teens are introduced to strategies outlined in Sally's second book & Planted in Purpose: What's Feeding Your Roots to uncover passion and purpose hidden inside them.
