Happy Friday everyone!
Every year I make it a point to let everyone involved with BCPS know that they bring and add value to our system as a whole. I believe this wholeheartedly and without reservation. The biggest challenge with value is most of the time we think we need or expect someone else to validate it. Sometimes we experience this extrinsic validation and sometimes we don't. When the extrinsic validation of our value is lacking, we may start to doubt ourselves. We may start thinking like Wayne and Garth. Please understand this: Your value does not decrease based on someone else's inability to see it. Your value as a person within our BCPS system should remain unchanged because your worth is intrinsic and not dependent on any external validation. Is it nice to be validated from time to time? Of course it is. However, have no doubt it is the intrinsic value we all possess to make us worthy of being Braves and Bravettes!
Happy Friday!
