Staying Positive

Mr. McClung's blog about teachers and educators staying positive is something that you should not take lightly. I think this way of thinking will help the minds of our young students to want to dream big and if they want it enough, they will achieve their dreams. It happens every day, year by year, and it always starts off being a seed planted into the minds of young ones. Now there is some confusion of what the media portrays as the "American Dream." But if a student wants to aspire to be a doctor or a CEO of a fortune 500 company, why is that a bad thing? If nobody had a dream to become these huge roles in our world, then we wouldn't have anyone fulfilling these roles today. There is nothing wrong with letting someone wish to become something that they think is ideal for them. What is wrong with letting them figure out whether or not their dream is really what is cut out for them? Teachers should stay positive and promote dreaming big to their students. Anyone can fulfill their dreams if they dedicate everything to achieving it. What kind of world would we live in if everyone knew what role they would play in life from the moment they were born?
