Over 90% of Finnish teachers remain in education for entirety of career. We don’t have 90% make it through one year. They also teach 50% less hours with remainder for planning, multiple recesses, autonomy at school level, limited teacher eval's & are treated like professionals!

The top 7 ideas on my mind heading into 2023:
The arrival fallacy.
Overrating intensity and underrating consistency.
Behavioral activation.
Balancing acceptance and progress.
Digital sabbath.
Taking the work seriously, but yourself not so much.
Embracing all of life.

This latest trend to lower the requirements to be a teacher is nuts.
We need to raise the status of the profession, not lower it. We need teachers to be valued.
Right now they are underpaid, undersupported, and overworked.
Thread on why lowering requirements is dumb:
.@GovDeSantis on recruiting veterans to the teaching field: "Our veterans have a wealth of knowledge and experience they can bring to bear in the classroom. [...] For too long, the requirements to be a teacher have been too rigid." trib.al/1bPu78k

Making teaching a low-status profession will have prolonged negative ramifications for decades to come.
When you constantly demean a profession, and politicians paint you as "indoctrinators", you push talented people out & discourage the next generation of educators.

People realized their job sucks and searched for something better.

Fake toughness: pumping out chest, intimidating on message boards, going till you puke, bragging about all nighters, and so on.
Real toughness: the ability to make decisions under distress that align with your values.
