Inspirational Quotes
Below is one additional quote that I found inspirational, especially in the Early Childhood Education field. As teachers, we sometimes get distracted with our own goals, concerns, and everyday trials, that we sometimes forget why we do what we do as early childhood educators. During week 2 of my Master's Program, I viewed a video of Early Childhood Professionals who discussed their passions, motivations and wisdom in the Early Childhood field. One of the professionals, Renatta M. Cooper, made a statement that truly opened my eyes, and reminded me to look beyond my own personal distractions, but to realign my motivation and passions, not only as an Early Childhood Educator, but as a parent as well.  
“It’s
not all about you, you have to take ego out of it and think 
about what’s best
for the child”
- Renatta M. Cooper
I LOVE this quote. It really takes a special, selfless person to work with children at the capacity they deserve.
ReplyDeleteThis quote reminds me of the true reason I teach, I will place it in my book of sayings to keep my grounded.
