John      Piper
“God is glorified in his people by the way we experience him, not merely by the way we think about him. Indeed”
John Piper, When I Don't Desire God: How to Fight For Joy

“A strong start sets the stage for meaningful learning and powerful impacts. Teachers need to be mindful of the place their students are in the learning cycle. Surface learning sets the necessary foundation for the deepening knowledge and transfer that will come later. But there’s the caveat: teaching for transfer must occur. Too often, learning ends at the surface level, as up to 90% of instructional time is devoted to conveying facts and procedures (Hattie, 2012). Bu the challenge is this: we can’t overcorrect in the other direction, bypassing foundational knowledge in favor of critical and analytic thinking. Students need and deserve to be introduced to new knowledge and skills thoughtfully and with a great deal of expertise on the part of the teacher. And teachers need to recognize the signs that it is time to move forward from the surface acquisition and surface consolidation period.”
Douglas B. Fisher, Visible Learning for Literacy, Grades K-12: Implementing the Practices That Work Best to Accelerate Student Learning

“Prioritize your problems and take care of them one at a time, the highest priority first. Don’t try to do everything at once or you won’t be successful.” I explained how a leader who tries to take on too many problems simultaneously will likely fail at them all.”
Jocko Willink, Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win

“Relax. Look around. Make a call.”
Jocko Willink, Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win

Matt Perman
“Truth: We cannot be truly productive unless all our activity stems from love for God and the acknowledgment that he is sovereign over all our plans.”
Matt Perman, What's Best Next: How the Gospel Transforms the Way You Get Things Done
