Why was the “Mind over Matter” journal created?

​

Mind over Matter is a journal that provides daily affirmations, declarations, and reflections for educators. As a 14 year urban educator, I have had to look to music, books, podcast, and other platforms for daily affirmation in order for me to do my job at a high level. I truly believe I have made it this far, because I have strengthened my MIND and anything not associated with the success of my students did not MATTER.

 

Many educators are driven to the field based on their passions and not their paycheck and sometimes all you need is someone or something to reassure you that all of the frustration and pain is worth it. Mind over Matter is a collection of 30 daily affirmations, motivations and reflections to help you become the best educator you can be. The most successful people are the most reflective people in this journal, you will find prompts that enlist you to reflect how they show up in your professional practice as an educator.
