I have 15 minutes before my next class, which means I can slip in this ten and still have time to make the trek to the classroom from my office. It isn’t a long walk, and the class setup is fairly simple. The key here is preparation. I am actually prepared to teach the class. I know what to expect, what to do with myself in the space, and what comes after for the students. That level of prep is key under these conditions. It is what I’m usually not so good at in life. I have been working on these things–hence the daily lists (which are hit or miss by the week) that are helping me gather data about my habits. Making data-driven decisions seems to be the best course of action for me right now in terms of finding a way to be the best version of myself.
