Pretty cool moment. 🙏🏾 Grateful to be recognized and featured by Notable Men. Success isn’t just about what we accomplish. It’s about the impact we have on people along the way. Still growing. Still working. Still becoming. notablemen.com/connect/ray-l…

As leaders and professionals, always make sure that you’re taking time to self-reflect. A keen lack of self-awareness can cause you to have a potential catastrophic lack of situational awareness.

No kid shows up to school 180 days to be miserable. How much do we own engagement?

From the band hall to the boardroom, one lesson remains true: great outcomes rarely happen by chance. They are the product of intentional systems & disciplined execution. Looking forward to sharing at the HAABSE Summer Conference. #HAABSE #ConnectToExcellence

Those that win don’t judge success by the words that come out of their mouth, but the motion in their tail to move towards the goal. Go for it scared, when you’re tired, when they doubt you, and when they hate on you. Victory belongs to those that are brave enough to move.

Some of the most important lessons I’ve learned about leadership didn’t come from a title, they came from serving people and overcoming challenges. Honored to join this outstanding lineup of leaders as we talk about what it takes to lead and make a difference. #FiveToRise

Great cultures are not built on inspiration alone… Consistency builds culture. Confusion destroys it. This principle is explored in my new book, Five to Rise: The Five Abilities of Highly Effective Educators. Get your copy here: a.co/d/0bbCFgVK

Replying to @readswithravi
Kelvin Sampson said, "The first step on the ladder of success is always failure." Growth starts when you stop avoiding failure - And start learning from it. "Immature people don’t understand that there is going to be failure." Choose to respond.

I just saw this earlier today and the Knicks just demonstrated it. “Resilience is both a character trait and a learned skill” #FreeGame 🔥💪🏽💯

I'm tired of being a weirdo. I can't be the only one looking to disrupt the status quo of our schools' systems...
