How do you make your good ideas happen? In Good magazine (Fall 2010), Scott Belsky provides three tips:
"Overcome reactionary work flow. The constant inflow of stuff — email, texts, tweets — causes us to react rather than be proactive with our energy. Create windows of non-stimulation in your day to be proactive with your energy.
"Organize with a bias toward action. Enter every meeting and occasion of creativity with an obsession for capturing 'action steps.' When a meeting yields nothing actionable, question its existence. Keep action steps separate from notes.
"Share ideas liberally. The more people who know your ideas, the more accountable you will be to follow through. Use blogs, networks, and social media to spread ideas, gather feedback, and boost accountability."
ABC and Beyond™, Hanen’s newest guidebook, brings to life the most current research on promoting children’s emergent literacy in early childhood classrooms, teaching educators not just what children should learn, but exactly how to help them learn it.
