"Last year the idea of "POSSIBILITY" was so easy for me to envision, but the closer I get to completing school the box opportunity seems to get smaller. I find myself restricting myself and losing sight of a purpose. My thoughts and actions are becoming limited which is moving my passion to uncomfortable. The chance to step into the "Universe of Possibility" that I designed and visualized is becoming challenging and my fear is not allowing me to continue in my transformation. The idea that I must continually question, "how my thoughts and actions, in this moment, reflections of the measurement world?", forces me to acknowledge that there will be struggles and fears, but there are possibilities in the transformation."
Stacey,
I am glad that you chose to write about some of the uncertainties and fears you are facing jumping off of this cliff into the realm of possibility. Many people in school, including our students, face the same fears you are facing. The world of possibility seems so big that at some point it overwhelms you and it seems to come crashing down. I think this book can help us as students and teachers realize that what is really scary is how we are going to be judged. The important thing is to cast aside these fears of being judged so that we can truly embrace our abilities.
