Words of Inspiration and Motivation


Words of Inspiration and Motivation

 

Many times when we listen to people talk about the field of early childhood, it helps us to realize how important and special children are.  As professionals we should ensure that young children get the best possible learning experiences available.  Teachers have the most power to motivate students because they are the ones on the front lines.  They are able to influence students in ways that they can actually understand. 

Inspirational Quotes

William J. Clinton

 “We cannot build our own future without helping others build theirs’

“If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes.  But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person.  It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit.”


Janet Gonzalez-Mena

“We all want children to grow up in a world free from bias and discrimination, to reach for their dreams and feel that whatever they want to accomplish in life is possible.  We want them to feel loved and included and never to experience the pain of rejection or exclusion.”

“We can raise children to celebrate and value diversity and to be proud of themselves and their family traditions.  We can teach children to respect and value people regardless of the color of their skin, their physical abilities, or the language they speak.”

 The Passion for Early Childhood - Quotes from  PROFESSIONALS

Renatta M. Cooper

 Passion: "I always felt like I owed families my best".

Motivation: “What keeps me engaged is that we're not there yet with any of them".

Wisdom: "You've got to take your ego out of it and think about what's best for the child."

 

Sandy Escobido
 
Passion: "We as professional in the early Childhood Field have an opportunity to shape a child's life for the better."

Motivation: “So when I go to these parent meetings and actually see parents learning how to speak to policy makers, learning how to write letters, learning how to tell their story and share their voice; that's what keeps me motivated regardless of the challenges going on."

Wisdom: "And so through that experience seeing how involved my parents were, it made me want to be involved in education in general."
