I am reading this book called deep change. It was an optional reading for my school leadership program and it was the first book that came in through amazon so I'm reading it, but its real deep. In a nutshell: The people you have to lead in organizations are usually in a group called slow death. Slow death people choose to sit and slowly die instead of attempting to change for the better of the organization and ultimately themselves. Think hardened bureaucrat who does everything exactly by the book and often says how great life will be once they retire. The sad thing about the slow death people is that so much of their life is involved in doing everything to avoid change and growth that they won't know how to embrace the change of life their retirement will provide. The alternative? Deep change. I'll read more about it, but basically you try to change the organization and yourself, constantly. There is no constant so don't waste time waiting to "get the hang of it." The main thing to focus on is figuring out what you need to do to be more than what you are now. When things change, you'll already be in the process of changing stuff so it will just be natural.
Perhaps it is ironic that while I'm reading this book about change, I fell into these habits doign the same shit. Today I had no written lesson plan and a crappy class planned out, it just didn't work out well.
I'll put another mix on here this weekend should be trance/techhouse/progressive
