To live an extraordinary life you'll have to go through adversity to become an extraordinary person. The key is to see your challenges as opportunities and to use them to get better, not bitter. Remember, the best is yet to come!

My pragmatic mission: Use your existing resources to transform the way your system teaches math. Teach more effectively & scores go up. This is good for students & is our stewardship responsibility in schools. From a PA school using SpringMath. @pattanupdates @sourcewelltech
