Avoid the hall

As a person who gets his degree in education, you can finish the final semester by completing the task of teaching students in a local school. This is a good thing for a variety of reasons, but one of the best parts is that you are appointed to a veteran teacher (we hope this person is good) and this person can give you all the tips, tricks and other things that they learned during their time in education. I can remember during the student teaching process, hear all kinds of advice from the specific teacher, but also only other teachers in the school system. There were some things that were funny, such as “When you have the first classroom in middle school, do not let children see you smile until Thanksgiving.” Although they really did not mean this, they were noteing the importance of developing the classroom management. Another was, “Make sure you are cute with the secretary and the gatekeeper, and they really run the school.” But there was a serious one. They said, “Be careful with what other teachers surround. If you go to the teacher’s hall at lunch and all this is a negative talk, avoid the hall. “

It is important to surround yourself. This can be true in a work environment and also in your personal life. Whoever surrounds yourself can have a great impact on your life. Walk around a group of people who complain of their jobs and soon your mentality will begin to shift around your job. People who complain of their church and soon your mind will begin to shift around your church. This is true in any field of our lives.

In the book of numbers, the Israelis were released from the slavery of the Egyptians and started their journey to the promised land. God provided them every day as a food for their journey. Every morning, they woke up and found that he came from us to use them in their strength for this day. But it is delivered from slavery and supplied with food every day is not enough.

Then the foreign mobs who were traveling with the Israelis were then eager for the good things of Egypt. The people of Israel also began to complain. “Oh, for some meat!” They chanted. We remember the fish that we used to eat for free in Egypt. We had all the cucumber, watermelon, leeks, onions, and garlic we wanted. But now our appetite has disappeared. All we eat is Mana! “ Numbers 11: 4-6

What is crazy is that this foreign mob was not forced to leave Egypt. More than that they were not in slavery, but they chose to join the Israelis on their journey. But here they are and now they are not satisfied. What do they do? They complain. What does that do? The people of Israel complain. These people who have just been released from slavery now complain. God saved them from the life of slavery and now they are more concerned about what they eat of the freedom they have.

Who surrounds yourself can make a big difference in your view of today, week, situation, etc. Hanging complaints and becoming a complaint. Hang around ascending and becoming sophisticated. Be a positive impact on others and put yourself with those who are heading in the same direction. And when necessary, avoid the hall.
