Why teachers either don't get in or want to get out?

"A research document by Durham University in November 2006, stated that the issues of workload and pupil behaviour were found to be the most important in dissuading teachers from entering the profession or possibly causing them to leave teaching..." excerpt from "Love your Life...

A Great Team and a Taster

'Love your life... survive the system' is at the editorial stage. Perhaps writing the book has been the easy part, as now the task of marketing and promoting of the book begins. Fortunately, I have a great team and I am confident that we will achieve the tight deadline.

Look out for the online surveys ... special offers and promotions... and here is a taster of the book for you:

Do you have more to do than time to do it? Does the quality of your work suffer? Do you find it hard to be happy because you are trying to do just way too much? Well, welcome to modern life! Yet it does not have to be this way does it?

You love your life…but it drives you crazy sometimes. People love you…but you drive them crazy sometimes. You’re full of ideas…but you wish you could see more of them take root and grow to their full potential.

You’re supposed to slow down; you’re supposed to exercise more and meditate; you’re supposed to eat fibre for breakfast and fresh fish for dinner and drink eight glasses of water a day. You’re supposed to make love regularly, pray often, and do unto others as you would have them do unto you - not forgetting the all important task of list making!

Well there is no Pulitzer Prize for writing the best “To-do” list!

There will be weekly teasers of the book from now till the launch. So keep coming back to read more and place your comments. Thank you.

Love Your Life... Survive the System...
